Back to Therapy we goooo!!!!!

hiii people!!!

Today Jessy had her follow-up visit at Bascom Palmer from her surgery. The doctor was very happy with the way her cornia looks. (Remember, her eye is only 75% closed, so the doctor still can check out her eye! :) ) He gave her the OK to continue with her physical therapy and the electric stimulator on her face. The doctor also doesn't want her using the eye patch so she can get used to seeing light through that eye. The patch just makes it dark all the time. She will only be using it if she's around a lot of people to prevent it from getting infected with germs.

She was super excited knowing she can go back to her therapies!

She has spent most of her time doing homework for her home-bound schooling. It's incredible how much work she gets!!!!!

Yesterday, Jessy and her brother Otto went to Winston Park K-8 to film a commercial encouraging students to attend a dance next Wednesday. It's a "Welcome Back" dance, and all proceeds are going to Jessy's Fix My Booboo Fund. Jessy will be at the dance, and she hopes to see all her friends there!

That's Jessy at home working on her home-bound work....

Tomorrow, Jessy will be going back to therapy tomorrow along with seeing her home-bound teacher!

This is Jessy at home practicing with the whistles she uses in speech therapy.

Jonas Brothers Concert!

Jessy wants to thank her padrino Laz for the awesome tickets to go see the Jonas Brothers!
Jessy was ready with her ear plugs and all to jam out at the concert..
She had an incredible time listening to her favorite Jonas brother and Demi Lovato songs! I'll be posting some pictures up soon!

Jessy's Procedure...

Jessy showed up to Bascom Palmer bright and early today!! The procedure went great! She got 75% of her eye stitched together... She came home and wanted to do more puzzles, but the doctor recommended she stay in bed with her head back. She shouldn't be giving her eye any pressure. At least we can be happy that she was great after the procedure :) We will update you on how she is feeling tomorrow.

We have a few fundraisers for Jessy's Fix My Booboo Fund....

Big Day Tomorrow!!!

Yesterday Jessy had her therapies. She has been doing really well practicing her walking and stimulations on her face. She blows whistles in speech therapy. She has to make sentences with "f" and "th" by reading from an index card. In physical therapy she practiced jumping the entire time. She was very scared at first. She thought she wouldn't be able to do it or that it would hurt. Her therapists encouraged her and stood by her side and soon enough they were jumping around the entire room! Mom was VERY proud!!! In occupational therapy she played with play-doh. She practiced putting big blocks in little holes. She also had to flip blocks over after trying to fit it in the small hole. (sorry she's not explaining it very clear to me LOL!)

Today she had an appointment with the neuroopthomologist. He wanted to see her before her surgery. He will see her again in November, in hopes that she has gained some feeling back in her left side. He has many great suggestions as to how Jessy will be able to see better after she gains back more feeling. He suggested some glasses that will not make her see double and allow her to open both eyes at the same time! I guess we will have to wait for her to gain that feeling back!

She also spent the day doing puzzles with her left hand! Here's a pic!

Tomorrow is her surgery!! They will be shutting 75% of her left eye! Lets keep her in our prayers!! I'll keep you posted!

Oops!

So last night Jessy had her friends Stephy an Nicole over and they were all sitting on the floor playing around. Somehow Jessy hurt her head and her scar started burning. She got really scared and asked to go see the doctor asap just in case something bad happened. When they got to the Urgent Care the doctor said the scar looked fine but that because that area is so sensitive, any little time she touches that area is going to feel like a big deal. It's still hard for her to realize that she has to manage herself in the things she does so she can feel better quickly.
Besides that she has been doing great! She was at the garage sale encouraging everyone to sell, sell, sell!
Remember September 2 jessy will be having surgery to close her eye shut! I'll keep you posted on how everything goes!

Thanks for a successful garage sale!

We would like to thank everyone who was a part of our garage sale this weekend! From those who donated things for us to sell, to those who were there in the scorching hot sun selling as well as those who went to shop! Our garage sale couldn't have been successful without you!
We had an amazing time, met some people who had an incredible story and had so much support. We had people who heard about us and just came by to drop off things to sell. It's incredible how much support we had and we are truly blessed and grateful to everyone!
We will be having another garage sale sometime in October so you guys can keep cleaning out your house and donating things for our next garage sale! :) email us for more info on how u can drop off donations @ jessytraviesofund@gmail.com.
