hannahs still doing great

not much news from here other than we started Physical Therapy today.  the PT will come to aunt colleens house once a week.  she will help all of us to strengthen Hannah's neck muscles and core muscles.  Heide, our PT, was very impressed with Hannah overall...thinks she has a TON of potential...we think so too.

she liked that Hannah can roll from side to side
follow and track with her eyes
push with her legs
grasp with both hands
examine her own hands
reach for toys

this weeks exercises are to help her find her feet and knees with her hands, turn her head and neck to the side with out turning her body, and a few muscle stretches.

we also went back to the dentist yesterday.  she didn't feel Hannah's mouth moved too much with not wearing her NAM all of last week...we were enjoying her face and smile all week long.  she made her a new NAM to help to maintain what progress she has made already.  this NAM is much less obtrusive...you can barely even see it.  it fits tighter and has a piece of dental floss (one if its many uses!) tied to it to pull it out.


still working on scheduling (4 physicians) Hannah's surgery at P/SL (hospital with a pediatric ICU) as well as her next sleep study.
