Much of September (and this month) has been working on Kat's hand at HealthSouth Rehab with OT Mel. We purchased a Saebo Stretch which helps the tone in her arm to keep the hand from always clamping tight.
OCTOBER>
A few week's ago, Kat was walking in the house after a pool visit. She didn't have her brace on her leg/foot and she twisted her ankle badly. Xrays show she suffered an Alvusion Fracture where the tendon pulled a piece of bone away from the ankle. OUCH! They treat it like a bad sprain. Some of her swelling has really gone down but her tone is really making it difficult for her to walk as it loosens her brace often through the day.
HOSPITAL VISIT>On Monday (Oct 20), we travelled to Boston Medical Center to visit Kathy's oldest sister Barb. All her siblings and her Mom were there. Barb is having difficulty breathing and the meds she is being given don't seem to help. Barb appears to be in discomfort. We are praying for God's healing for her.
It was a long trip for Kat, even considering the next morning she had to go to Concord for her visit at HealthSouth with Mel. She is doing amazing as she goes on this journey. More to come! Keep tuned!
