A new item will soon post. Be sure to check in often . . . if your child needs a gait trainer! Yep . . . gait trainer . . . FREE . . . only here!
If you have PT questions, you have to contact my biz partner, Amy Alley Foster. You can do so via our "contact us" button. She not only diagnosed our daughter's stroke but continues to provide amazing advice that has made all the difference. And, seriously, she knows more than most of Jai's specialists. (Please know that this should not replace advice, treatment, etc. from your child's specialist. Just had to say . . . or our attorneys will go crazy.)
Jai had Botox therapy in early December. Three days later, she was no longer scissor-stepping and has really made some amazing progress. AMAZING! TRULY! At $400 a pop (after insurance), I'm glad it's working. We should have done it sooner but once we found an amazing pediatric neurologist, we took the leap of faith . . . and it's paid off for our girl.
Our "typical" has an unofficial "interview" with the peer Pre-K program at Jai's school next week. Keep your fingers crossed. Jai's sis would love this program. And I believe she would benefit it as well.
I still hate the disability but love love love the child! The amount of love and joy she gives us is priceless.
Parents with special needs kids . . . hang in there. Please know that you are not alone! We're here for you and we want to hear from you!
