Abby update - November 24

Abby's still getting a little "time off" for the holidays.  She only had morning therapy sessions, leaving lots of time in the afternoon for visits with friends and enjoying the beautiful afternoon outdoors.  Her morning sessions were good.  She's getting more adept with her hands and can raise and extend both arms to move objects (and is really working on her throwing actions with her right arm, you softball coaches will be happy to know!).  Walking with the walker and assistance is still difficult, but she is better at moving her legs in response to general requests.  Today she only mouthed words, but she mouthed lots of them and she was able to eat diced meat, vegetables and fruit.  Tonight we enjoyed watching "High School Musical" (a cult classic among young girls, in case you didn't know), while Gordon and Frank attended the Wimberley Texans playoff victory.

It's already late, and I want to go pick up our dogs early tomorrow for their weekend visit, so I'll just close with a note that I'm now able to check emails more consistently, so feel free to drop us a line at lalinam786762@yahoo.com.  (Please feel free to try again, even if previous messages bounced.  There was a faulty link in an earlier post due to a typographical error.)

Hope you are enjoying blessed holidays!
