A new week :)

I wanted to start by thanking everyone again for coming on Saturday to our car wash!! It was so great to see everyone there and we had an amazing turn out! It's truly incredible all the support we have gotten!! Everything we do is for Jessy. I know she will be back to her normal self in no time!! As you all saw, she is a super strong girl!! HECK, she even wanted to stand out in the street holding signs to direct everyone into the car wash! We love you Jess and all this is for you princess :)

So today she had her three therapies; occupational, physical and speech.

In Occupational therapy she had to do math problems. She also played ball/catch.

In physical therapy she had to try walking by herself... Don't worry, she didn't start yelling "don't touch me" like in the video. She gets super excited when she starts walking by herself! We all get excited actually.. She's come such a long way in such a short period of time! She also practiced getting up and sitting down by herself. It's good for her to practice this so she doesn't lose her balance or fall to the side.

In speech therapy she practiced talking with some vocal exercises. She had to practice saying words with "sp" and "bl" as well as having to say "ah" and wait until a frog said "ribbit". These exercises are great also because she has to try using bother sides of her mouth.

Tomorrow she has two doctors appointments and her three therapies!!! I'll keep you posted!! :)
