Dr. Rosenbluth came in early and surprised us by deciding AJ should start electro-therapy next week. We'll let you know what it's like next week! It surprised the therapists because the doctor doesn't usually start this treatment in patients for another week. AJ's excited to try it all!
At OT AJ practiced sitting up in a tri-pod position. It was SO HARD! It took all of his energy and was very strenuous on his biceps; but he did it without support for a few seconds! Awesome!!!
When RJ was here last night he noticed that AJ's power chair was too narrow for his arms, which makes it really hard to drive. RJ thought all night what he might do to help AJ and then surprised us by bringing some supplies over to extend the arm rest. It works perfectly!!! Now AJ can drive around and not have pain in his right shoulder from the lack of support.
