My Occupational Therapist


This is Miss Monique! She is my occupational therapist and has started back her visits with me, every other Tuesday! She was so impressed with my new look and how well I am doing with communicating! Mommy and daddy were able to get some great tips on helping me gain more strength in my neck when I am looking towards my left.

When I was born, my head was stuck to the right and I couldn't really turn it to the left, at all. I still favor my right side, but now, since surgery, I can actually hear a sound to my left and turn towards it! Because I have been lying more on my right side, my head is getting flat. After surgery, my head was so round and within a week, it started flattening. With just adding the cool tips Miss Monique gave us, it will all shapen out soon!

Do you know what is really neat about Miss Monique? She is a dancer, just like mommy used to be and she has invited mommy to take her adult tap class! Wow, that is great. I hope that mommy takes the time to go. I know she gets busy, but it would do her some good!

We love Miss Monique and all of the ladies of "Babies Can't Wait"...they are a great support to us.

Tons of LOVE,
MAGGI
