Writing Endurance
My twelve-year old daughter was born with a right BPI. She is also right handed and has difficulty writing without pain. Has anyone received therapy to improve the amount of writing before the pain becomes too difficult to manage? This endurance problem began in 5th grade and intensified in 6th even with the use of grips and continued therapy. She does most of her homework on the computer but would like to take notes in class. Thanks!

- Injury Description, Date, extent, surgical intervention etc: I am ROBPI, global injury, Horner's Syndrome. No surgery but PT started at 2 weeks old under the direction of New York Hospital. I wore a brace 24/7 for the first 11 months of my life. I've never let my injury be used as an excuse not to do something. I've approach all things, in life, as a challenge. I approach anything new wondering if I can do it. I tried so many things I might never have tried, if I were not obpi. Being OBPI has made me strong, creative, more determined and persistent. I believe that being obpi has given me a very strong sense of humor and compassion for others.
