Last week we saw dr kerkering, a pediatric neurodevelopmental doctor and she said we are right on track with her therapies right now and she tested Liv in different area, coming to the conclusion that she's at a 30 month old level...which is exactly how old she is! So that is great. We do not need to see this doctor again unless we feel it necessary.
Then we saw dr brown again on friday-went well, too. we're to keep her right sfo on her foot and they are prescribing a foot insert for her left, too, to keep her foot in line. We're going to try a few different things on her arm and leg to reduce tone/relax muscle so we can have more effective OT and restraint therapy. She's doing very well, we just want her to have all the opportunities to help her to use that right hand. We're so proud of her!
Update on potty training: she went potty three times for dada and me yesterday and twice for aunt angie today! good girl!
Martinsville was great today-little hot at times, but traffic wasn't too bad and we had a day at the track, like the good ol days! of course we missed olivia every minute! :)
About Me
- Kristy and Brian
- Brian & I met online in 2000 and married in June 2003. Olivia was born April 14th, 2006, a week before due date! She has blessed us in so many ways. She had an AVM bleed in her brain at 5 mo. and had emergency surgery to remove it. She's been through 4 surgeries total, all by age 5. Oct. 6, 2006 was the date of the AVM bleed and she endured PT, OT, and Speech Therapy through Early Intervention Services until age 3. Now, only OT once/wk and an IEP through school w/sped ed, OT and Speech. Madison was born 6.29.09 and is growing up too fast, talking up a storm, potty training and enjoying time with her family and friends at daycare and church. Her cute little personality blossoms more every day. :) The girls are best friends and get along really well about 99% of the time.
Liv and Madi
