This week Veronika has completely blown me away. Veronika had an appointment with Alison her OT. Alison fitted a hand splint to Veronika’s left hand, the hand that she could barely use for anything…..we were sitting at the table to do some work with Veronika on her fine motor skills….Alison fitted the splint(after she cut it down because Veronika’s hands are so little) and then we played with one of the toys where she had to put the little men into the block.
We were both completely amazed at what happen next…
In fact Alison had to go and get the video to record it….
Remember Veronika can barely use her left
hand for anything, it is not functional by any stretch of the
imagination….this is what happened
This may just be one of my Proudest Mummy Moments yet…
I still can’t believe how Veronika managed the new skill within a few seconds of wearing the hand splint. I also must apologise to everyone that I have made watch the video over the last few days…
actually I’m not going to apologise for something I am so proud of….
I have done a little without the hand splint, then with the hand splint
video…Veronika can reach further and higher with the hand splint on, and
her releasing the object is just so much more fluent….
