We are busy finalizing the plans for Melissa’s fundraiser. Only 14 days till the fundraiser. Most of the things that we have found to help her come out of our pocket for expense. I have to say so far we have been so blessed Melissa has had so many doors opened for her-I know we are doing what is right for her. So many people have been so good to our family. Thank you!
I have to say thank you to Sara without her we would not have this awesome website! Thank you Sara!
Melissa had several times this week when she laughed! So sweet. Her therapist commented that they went the longest amount of time without Melissa putting her hands in her mouth-25 minutes. She is eating table foods and about two months ago we were just beginning to transition her from baby food to chopped up food. She is trying to give herself more oral stimulation trying to chew on anything near her mouth. Next we need to get her to be able to bring things to her mouth with her hands. She has started straightening out her arms and is putting some weight on her hands while on her tummy.
