We were given an rx for extra therapy PT and OT 3 hours a week as well as a night time wedge/knee splint/brace thingy that I am sure isn't going to go over very well with Jack...but we shall try.
The Dr. said even under anesthesia his hammies (hamstrings) were so so tight. She didn't say this outright -- but I think surgery is in our future. Sadly this is what happens with spasticity. Jack's had a major growth spurt and his muscles just can't handle the growth. I hope botox and therapy help a little for the next few months!
Gotta run -- Jack wants to go watch Tee Tee (TV).
If you notice the botox working really well, then he could be a great candidate for SDR....which was the best (and hardest) thing we ever did for Regan. She always did really well with her spasticity under botox.
ReplyDeleteGlad it went well and he didnt have any problems with the anestetia!
