Visited us today and our baby will be getting physio once a week..no big problems but her left side ( where most seizures have been) is slightly weaker than her right..

I've found that most physical therapists are really nice people -- Hope that's the case for you. I've had therapy for y shoulders, and it really does help.

Thanks for your reply

yeah, we did some of the exercises just a while ago..they seem to already be going better

Yes, it's so satisfying when you can actually see progress over time.

Our Luke has had physio for six month or so. He has also been having 30 minute sessions in a local pool as well, which he really loves, and this is building up his leg and core strength. Next week our physio is going to come along to the swimming lessions to observe and give some advice to his swimming teacher on what she can do to improve his sessions! It is so heart warming to see dedicated people collaborating to help your loved ones.

Ohhhhhh.... I'm imagining him in the pool taking his swimming lessons. How CUTE!

Jessica is still having no seizures so far

and fysio is still carrying on..I think it is helping her alot..she is now trying very hard to turn on to her tummy bless her

only problem now is she is becoming funny with strange faces so fysio is now a problem..she spends more time crying and sitting in my lap..as soon as she is in my lap she laughs and smiles at her therapist..little bugger at 4 months!! lol x

heh

lol x
Today she had a check up with the docter, just a general check up mind you

at first she chatted away to the docter but suddenly I guess she realized that she wasn't anyone that she knows and OMG did her face change and she cried and cried bless her!! Being our last child she certainly has us all wrapped around her little finger.. lol x
