Re: PT / Cindy

[Guest guest]

,

I'm gonna leave Catalina with grandma. I want to be able to focus on

Sofia. I hope Baptist will let me go in with her......especially if

she might cry. When we went to Memorial for her PT's the girl would

sit her on her lap and we would hold a toy to each side of Sofia and

try to get her to turn her head. Then she would do the two exercises

(same as we do at home). Is PT at Baptist more than that?

I'm gonna try and attach the pictures and see if it works. Thanks.

Barbar (Sofia 6 months/Catalina 28 months)
