Aidan's New Normal: School and Therapy at Home

Aidan goes to school for a couple of hours every morning. Then goes home for a nap and therapy exercises and school homework.

The wrist, hand and fingers are always the slowest and last to recover. Lots and lots of exercise will bring them back. With strong concentration he turns his hand palm up.

Then turns it palm down. Over and over again.


First stretch out those crumpled fingers. 
Then .....

Lift my hand high, then

straighten out those fingers. I really need to concentrate!
Now some pushups with my auntie Leanne. My right shoulder likes to suddenly give way, I have to be very careful.

At the end, a restful snuggle with my auntie.
And a restoring Slurpee in Grandpa's chair! Ah life is good!

I was SO excited to see and hear that you are back at Living Waters, Aidan! Your friends must be so glad to see you regularly again!
Way to go!

Love, the Currys
