So we've been trying to figure out a way to help Alannah have a little less gravity when playing; So Rhonda (OT) gave us the idea to make some sort of slings for her arms, needless to say after a few hours of sewing..it turned out OK. Alannah was very thrilled to be able to finally have a little more help when playing with her toys, and was using her right arm and hand a lot more! (Made me super happy!!)
I also taught her the song 'I'm a little tea-pot' She was trying soo hard to sing along with me, and say tea-pot. She's also starting to say piggies (For toes) it's more like 'iggies' but it's still super cute to hear her try and say new words.
I've been trying my best to get people to understand the situation I'm in for my age. I am no longer in school because I got so far behind when she was sick November-December 31, 2011; BUT I do plan on continuing my education this Summer or Fall to receive my RN, LPN, and also take Respiratory Therapy classes. I am finally back at work, but only for 3 days a week, and am starting to be financially stable again. I'm just very grateful I have Alannah in my life to keep me going; and to keep me motivated to be as successful as possible!
