Mary is now 3 visits in to her Occupational Therapy/Physical Therapy. I love this place!! They already have her gaining motion in her right wrist! What a huge blessing that is! The therapists are wonderful and patient and they know exactly what they're doing. I am so glad that we found this place.
Monday Marian was given a softer, wrap over splint to use at school. She left it on from Monday morning until Tuesday evening, sleeping in it Monday night. Tuesday evening she had bumps and redness all over her hand where the splint had been and she was itching like crazy. She took it off and told the therapist about it this morning. We were told to allow her wrist time without it to see if maybe Marian is allergic to the material and she was given a new splint that is made to fit her wrist and is made out of different material that's harder than the other one.
She wore that at school all day and has not had any problems so far. It's helping with her pain and her mobility also. That's a big YAY! :)
I told y'all, she will beat this. I will WILL her through this if I have to, lol. But she will not lose her mobility. Not as long as I'm here to make sure she gets to her appointments and to remind her to do her wrist exercises twice a day, everyday. She's got this. ;) And it's a major stress off of my mind. <3
She's got a ton more visits ahead of her, but I am fully confident that by the end of this, she will have her wrist back.
