We have had lots of positive feedback about Ava's progress in therapy. Her main therapist Paula is extremely pleased with progress she has made. Ava's head control is very near to perfect now and she brings her hands together quite often which means she is loosing the baby reflex there which is crucial for her development. I guess the biggest test is going to be when we return home and people see her, especially the professionals. Its difficult for us to assess as we are with her every day and I guess I do that wierd thing whereby I play any progress down in case I am being over the top about any small improvement made. We will see on our return to the UK.
In order to keep this progress going we hadn't realised we had the option to purchase the suit and be trained in using it. It was a big decision and we debated it for quite sometime. In the end it felt the right thing to do to purchase the suit for Ava. It is going to last her for 3 years and help her to continue to progress well. I am in the process of being trained at the moment and am doing well with it. I look forward to see her continue her progress at home.
Its the last 3 days of Ava's therapy now, she is rather tired and ready for a break. I know we haven't done much except be there but I have to say we are pretty exhausted too and are all ready to come home - well perhaps not Molly!
