progress

On Monday January 5th we were invited to a family council meeting with some of the staff at Heartland. The meeting included Jen, the RN manager, Ashley the Social Worker, Danny the Physical Therapist, Mary, Jack & Sue. We discovered that Aetna Insurance was not being given accurate updates on Mary’s progress. She is making excellent progress. Examples of her progress include: 1. No more need of the hoyer to get to the wheel chair. 2. She can slowly push herself in the wheelchair (this is just beginning). 3. She will start riding a bike using both arms and feet. 4. She has begun to play the piano using an easy reading book. 5. She gets a total of 2 and one half hours of PT, OT, and speech daily. 6. She plays solitaire but so far doesn’t win. 7. Plays Imagineiff and Rumicube.

It's great to keep in touch with the people who work with Mary.
