Mija had a good Saturday. She had speech and PT/OT therapies today because she had missed some sessions. She had speech at 9. The therapist gave her liquids and honey thickened liquid to swallow. Mija held some of the liquid in her mouth and her swallowing was delayed. The therapist said there was very little head nodding to answer questions. The highlight of the session was when Mija took a deep breath and said wow. The therapist asked her to say it again but she wouldnt do it. Dad and mom got to Meadowbrook at 10. She was in the therapy gym working. The therapists were working on sitting balance. They had her bare feet on a spongy mat. She was asked to try to push her leg on into the mat with her hand. Both sides were tried. Mija was able to push her right foot down into the mat one time. They then had her lie down on each side and balance on her elbow. Minimal and moderate assist was needed. She was able to balance on each side for 2 minutes. When leaned forward with arms on her knees, Mija was able to hold for 2 minutes. She was ready to lie down after her therapies. Shawns friend, Justin Tubbs, visited Mija on his trip from Chicago to Colby. Shawn, Brynne, and Taylor traveled to Gardner after moving Eryn to Emporia. Thanks for all of the continued prayers and good vibes/karma and please keep them coming!
