Happy Friday!

I am so glad Friday is finally here!

Today, everyone except me slept in. Cass didn't have school today, and with the replacing of our outlets, clocks were reset so they didn't quite make it up on time to get to Randy's first therapy appointment. The therapist was able to reschedule, though, for after his other therapists.

In physical therapy, Randy worked up a sweat doing his exercise bike and his walking and balance exercises.

In occupational therapy, he worked on putting closthespins on a bowl with his left hand. She then had Randy do left arm exercises. Randy commented to her that he thought these were helping and he was noticing more mobility with the left elbow and arm. The therapist then had Randy do his shoulder shrugs and some arm stretches. He then worked on putting pegs into a pegboard with his left hand. They were tiny pegs and his mom reminded him of the big ones he struggled with at Good Sam. Big improvements! The therapist then had Randy doing pattern work with 1 1/2 inch wood cubes.

In speech, the therapist went over Randy's homework and she had him explain his strategy and how he completed the task. They also talked about what Randy did at work ~ his duties, his schedule and responsibilities for follow through.

Randy spent the evening working on making a little leather pouch to carry around a small notebook he has.
