PT Update

During today's session, Mary noticed that Mia has fluid on her RIGHT knee now. So, we are keeping an eye on it. Mary took measurements right above, on, and right below her kneecap and well see what happens in the next few weeks. When Mary pressed on the center of Mia's kneecap, you could see the fluid ooze out right above....very squishy and puffy. So, this is something new for us to pray about.

Other than that, she did well during her session. During the exercises, she initiated more with her left leg (i.e., climbing stairs, stepping over hurdles, taking giant steps on the colored mats on the floor to get a good stretch out of her left leg). So, that was very good! Mary said her joints were very fluid today with minimal resistance. Her elbow still needs some work, but it is much straighter than it was several months ago.

Overall, it was a good session. :)
