We have been very impressed with Lizzy's therapist. He is extremely intense, but it is proving to be a great thing. He is not simply treating Lizzy, but training our staff to do so. They have "class" three times per week for over an hour and a half, and he is a strict teacher! And our girls are learning. A lot. The girls work with her regularly, and do much more than just a little stretching or massage home program. I am SO proud of them! They take it seriously and have taken a huge interest in Lizzy and her progress.
Lizzy's progress in the past few months is just amazing. She is a bless, and a blessed little girl!
Lizzy showing off her range of motion after a session. A little girl whose left hand was completely immovable when she came to us! Notice the surprise on Angie's face.
Maina (the OT) showing Suzy the correct pressure to use on some of Lizzy's exercises and massage.
Lizzy was being casted for her new splints. She did NOT like it! A strange man putting goopy stuff all over her legs...it was not a pleasant experience for the poor girl. :-(
Notice Julia's face, looking at the man, wondering why he is doing this to Lizzy. Miah & Julia are so compassionate towards Lizzy. They are the best of friends.
Thanks to Lizzy's sponsors for a great year! She has come so far, and continues to progress. And in the past month, we have seen another huge spurt in her development!
