Lauren had another good day. She had physical, occupational, and speech therapy for about four straight hours. Occupational therapy gives Lauren certain tasks to perform. For instance, her "job" yesterday was brushing her hair. Her speech therapy is primarily focused on weening her off the tracheotomy tube. They cap it off to see how she breathes and if she can eat soft foods, like applesauce. She had been doing well with most of these, but lack of sleep was making her tired and emotional. Please continue to pray she falls into a sleeping pattern conducive to her therapy schedule.
They've had trouble fitting Lauren with a wheelchair. They didn't take into account her long legs with the first two chairs. Hopefully, the third time will be a charm.
We've seen a little more activity from her right arm. Please pray we see more.
Once again, thank you all for the love and prayers. We all still need them. This time in rehab will be slow, and there may be times when staying positive will be a challenge. Please keep the staff at the Children's Institute in your prayers.
