Therapy Update

Well, it has been officially 6 months since Vinny has started his OT and PT therapy.  I can't believe how far he has come.  Going into his first appointment, Vinny was a tight fisted, tight muscled, and tense little boy.  Today he is the complete opposite.  It is so wonderful to see his hands opened, trying to grasp for objects; and I've never seen the full length of his arms until just recently.  He has so much more range and mobility, and I couldn't be more thrilled.  Just this past Monday, Vinny had one of his best appointments ever.  His wonderful therapists, Dawn and Heather, could not believe some of the things he was doing.  He was standing with great posture (with support of course) and reaching for toys.  You could tell how proud they were of him.  I too am so proud of Vinny.  I have never seen a child more determined than he is. 

Of course, he still has more to work on, but I know that with more time he will be able to do so much more.  He will be starting another 6 months of therapy and I can't wait to see what develops in that time. 


GREAT WORK VINNY!!!  I LOVE YOU!!
