Emily Update XIII
Emily continues to show progress in occupational and physical therapy. Her left hand is now reaching, touching and fingering items. She can also hold an item for a short time if placed in the left hand. There is some progress with speech therapy, but it is slow. Emily is scheduled to have the g tube placed in her stomach on March 16 [morning CST]. We meet with the surgeon today. It will probably be a two-day hospital stay.Emily is now six years old and progress towards recovering is slowly moving forward. This tube will allow food to be directly delivered into her stomach as she still cannot eat or talk. We're praying that the seizure effects have not caused permanent harm. Thank you so much for praying!
We'll keep you updated. Thank you for your prayers.
