I went to Riverview for 11 today, as that was when Larry had physio.
He was walking by himself to places, and was working on steps. He's getting so much stronger every day!! He also did some work with a pole and raising his arm up. He is starting to get some movement in his hand..it's slight, but its' there!! WOOOOHOOOO!!!
Then, in OT today, one of the therapists explained exactly what they meant by "tone" in his hand/arm. It's actually a good thing - if there's no tone, then that limb will never move again. So - Larry has tone, so it's good. Now, to make it so he has conscious movement of the hand.
Another go with his splint, and he managed to hold a couple of the nerf toys they use. His OT then took off the splint, and he was able to use his hand a bit! YAYYYYY!! I'm pretty happy :D
