America Day 21 - HBOT Session 40!!!

It is sad that our time at Oxford Hyperbarics is all finished... There are so many small little changes that have happened! The easiest to see was how much more movement I have in the chamber. I am annoyingly wriggly. I am SO much more vocal too! There are so many more sounds and noises I am making. I would recommend Hyperbaric for anyone, especially if you need a little "boost" or want to amplify results for something you are trying to do - like the Suit Therapy or Speech.

Snoozing

After our 40th Session with Mummy and Sheila

America Day 20 - TheraSuit Session 17

Enjoying a lay down and massage from Chris.

Today was a session of stretches and exercises all one after the other. Mummy was taking photos for Chris so he could make a book of exercises and instructions about how to do them when we get home.

I still don't like doing four point...

I went for a bike ride this afternoon too, but it was so cold and windy that we came straight back in

 

America Day 20 - HBOT Sessions 38 & 39

I am liking to sit up more in the chamber. Sometimes I can pull myself up to sit (depending what there is for me to pull myself up on), other times Mummy will help me. It is good to see some of what is going on outside!

America Day 19 - HBOT Sessions 36 & 37

I am still such a wriggle worm in the chamber - this is one of the things that has definately changed for my during my time here. That, and I can suck from a pop top bottle if I am thirsty! I just need some help to put it in my mouth... I can reach to swat at it the bottle too! (That is how Mummy knows I want it)

America Day 19 - Kaufman Center Session 7

Swinging helps to get my vestibular system working

I really love the zee vibe! This was used as my reward when I took some really good bites off my spoon. We are working on closing my lips to take the food rather than just biting down with my teeth.

My drinking is coming along ok too!

America Day 19 - TheraSuit Session 16

Mummy hasn't been taking as many photos as usual this week, it is her week to learn all my exercises so she has been working too!

This is me practicing my power kicks. I need to lift up, and push down like I am taking a step. The weight around my ankle is to help my muscles grow big and strong!

I was tired today and being strapped up to do some work in the spider was not what I wanted to do

And to top it all off we worked on four point. Chris mentioned that he has never come across anyone that disliked doing four point as much as me!

Trying to support my own weight all by myself is hard. I need to learn to hold on to a bar and hold myself up independently before I can learn to use a walker and take steps on my own

America Day 18 - HBOT sessions 34 & 35

Today was our last 2 sessions at the South Lyon office of Oxford Hyperbarics. Tami and Bruce are always so happy to see me and have noticed how much I have changed - even in the last week. I am so active in the chamber now and I am vocalising too. I am making so many more sounds!

Yes, I am noisy and wriggly! (and a little poo machine in there lately too - pee yew! lol)
