Therapy Neurologist Physiatrist

Rie tolerated a full day of therapy.  No pain.  Eating and sleeping well.  Incision looks great. Self-feeding restarted, slow but encouraging.  Somehow the speech therapists can make her talk! An awesome neurologist and an awesome physiatrist (rehab specialist) teamed up and started medication adjustments to better help with the spasms, response time, and energy level.  Another head CT today to compare with last week's. This rehab hospital is the right place for us at this time.  Praise God!🙏💗

 Today is Mia's 16th birthday.  The three of us went shopping for clothes for her yesterday.  It was the first time in over two years that Rie shopped without a wheelchair, using just a standard quad walker.   It almost felt like a normal pre-stroke shopping day, including the backache I used to get whenever we went shopping for clothes! Praise God. ❤️🙏
