ot put a left and right mobile arm support on gen's powerchair this morning. during ot, we worked both arms back and forth. gen wore a brace on her hand. the brace simulates gen squeezing her hand to hold something (like a spoon or chapstick). ot also brought gen a head switch. it can be used as a tv remote and a radio remote. we worked with the standing frame during the 1st pt session. gen held her trunk upright all on her own. she also had a pt session for her legs. she did well moving her legs from the thigh and from the knee. we have a big day tomorrow. gen will have her feeding tube taken out, have a pressure mapping session (to determine the best kind of cushion for her wheelchair), and have an assessment for her own wheelchair. thank you all for the cards and comments you leave on this blog. we enjoy hearing from you.

Gen, Josh and Susan,
Wednesday (today) sounds like a big day, but then everyday has seemed big to me with the amazing progress you are making! Yeah to the feeding tube leaving, that is like a run toward recovery, not a walk! Keep up the great work, I am so proud of you. Love, Tracey
