PT Update!

Hi,

I dont know where this month has gone! I wanted to update everyone on my latest physical therapist! Sabrina, the Pt from Conneticut, decided not to return in November to work with me.Ā  That is okay though, as we have found Daniella! Daniella lives in Cobano (ten minutes away from me). She is in her last year of PT school. She has much drive and ambition and the best part is she just adores me!

Recently me, mom and Daniella went to San Jose for a week. My mom had scheduled appointments with my team of therapists! Daniella came along to meet everyone and they also showed her many different exercises! The one thing they told Daniella is that she has to keep working with me even if I get upset and cry! You see, I am smart because when I cry Daniella stops working with me and spoils me! However my mom and the other PT’s told her she could not give into me everytime I fussed as I would never get any work done! Darn it! They caught on to me! šŸ˜‰

We were able to meet Daniella’s professor Geovanny. He is also a PT and a carpenter. He makes special needs items. He wants to makeĀ me a stander. He said I have much potential, and was quite impressed with me! He has huge hands and could make my body work wonders. I was sitting up and rolling around with him in minutes! We really liked Geovanny and tomorow we are headed back to San Jose so he can measure me for my stander.

You might wonder what is a stander? Well it’s function is to keep me upright so that I can feel the weight of my body. Geovanny said I should be standing upright 3 to 4 times a day. It isĀ important for my growth.Ā  He thinks that my neck strength is strong enough for a stander that allows me to look down and work my neck muscles. So we were all excited about that!

Soon we will be headed to Texas! Cant wait to see everybody!
Love Malia
