Ahhhhhhhh. 10:15, Glen's asleep, dogs are asleep, Kev's at Rushi's... and I have a wee bit of down time! Yay!
Hand therapy went well today. She's pleased with the strength he's maintaining. Made a couple of suggestions on how to make things better at work.. he demonstrated his typing technique, and there's a chance he's tightening his shoulders to get his hands to an angle where he can type... fatiguing muscles that he doesn't need to fatigue. He's going to talk to his boss about either raising his chair, or getting a desk with a dropped keyboard. Kathlyn (the therapist) had me taking copious notes (which I still need to transcribe of course) and we left with some new exercises and a new list of equipment Kev & I need to figure out how to make. At least my creative side is getting SOME kind of workout!
Tomorrow is the speech pathologist. This lady is my hero and I am DYING to meet her... after 3 years of trying to get some kind of answers, it was the speech pathologist who finally saw that yes, there was something going on, and it wasn't just my imagination! I will be forever grateful to her!
We talked about Michael & Danielle's wedding... I offered Glen a couple of options to the standard suit & tie, but that's what he really really wants. So he agreed that he would use the button hook and let Kevin tie the tie, and he will be simply dashing for the wedding! Now I just have to figure out what Kevin's going to wear!
