OT Appointments with Cyndi

Saturday was the last day of summer!  The Greenman Family is definitely excited to greet Autumn with open arms. The air isn't as oppressive, the summer travels are complete and we're all settling back into our trusted happy routine. Walker is in school three days a week. Jack's tenure file is closed and he is now free to refocus his energies on his current students. And Charlie is the busiest of us all with a full line up of weekly therapies.  Just for reference, here's a look at his weekly schedule:

Monday:
10:45 - 11:45 Physical Therapy
4pm - 5pm Speech Therapy

Tuesday:
11:30 - noon Occupational Therapy
3pm - 4pm Service Coordinator Meeting and Therapy

Wednesday:
Mama and Charlie integrate lessons from Monday and Tuesday

Thursday:
9:30 - 10:30am Physical Therapy
11:30-noon Occupational Therapy

Friday: 
10am - 11:30 S.T.E.P.S. program and feeding therapy

It's a lot for such a little guy. But he's handling it all beautifully. This was Charlie's first week in his new orthotic leg braces. He's doing pretty well with it and tolerating them for about 4-5 hours a day. They're really warm though and I think they make him a little uncomfortable. We're going to slowly work our way towards wearing them for 6-8 hours daily. You're a trooper Charlie.



So what do we do in Occupational Therapy?  
Here's a little peek inside Charlie's appointments with Cyndi, our wonderful therapist at Baylor.

Looks like boot camp for Charlie! He is getting so strong, and looks pretty happy doing his exercises. Stay tough Little Charlie Fighting Bear!
