Re: N Arm braces for weight bearing

[Guest guest]

She can't crawl, even though she getsin to position sometimes and tries. Her arms won't support her.

, This is a pic of Chelsea in her Benik arm braces. She cannot sit independently on her own because of poor arm strength. As you can see, she is sitting by herself here, this is pretty recent, I used to have to sit behind her to help balance her. They are made of neoprene, each has 2 flat metal rods for support. She has used these for a few years to help assist her in weight bearing. They have helped her a lot. Her OT orders them for us and ins. paid. I just had a thought that these may help Leah while in the crawling position. Hope I'm not being to forward=)
