Hello Everyone...
Posted: Mon Jan 14, 2002 10:58 pm
I tried posting the other day under guest settings, but I still don't see my message, so Francine helped me out.
I've been gone for a while and I am sorry to see new names here.
Colleen is nine months post mod quad now and is seven years old. She continues to do well and goes to therapy once a week. On her last therapy session, I observed her using her right arm to lift her left arm over her head, which was disturbing to me. I'll probably be sending another video to Texas soon. I've enrolled her in gymnastics, too. Anything to get her to use that arm instead of holding it across her abdomen with her hand dangling down.
Hope everyone is well! Here is the link to an article that was written about Colleen last fall. It has some typos but it otherwise pretty accurate. Take care!
