We're Back

Well, Sammy is back in therapy here in Utah at Now I Can.  I've been really distracted the past 6 months and I have not done as great doing at-home therapy with Sammy as I had been in the past.  CCS (California Children's Services) is where Sammy gets most of her physical and occupational therapy.  She also gets that and speech through school.  Previously, Sammy had PT 2x a week and OT 1x a week.  They have slowly been dwindling that down and she now gets PT 2x a month and OT 1x a month.  I've questioned the point in it all, and even asked if 1x a month did anything for her.  The response was "No, but it keeps her in the program."  And then I question, do I even want her still in the program?  At what point is enough...enough?  I think it's a question we'll all face at some point....maybe.

Anyway, I've thought a lot about it.  I've prayed about it.  And about a week ago, I feel like I really got my answer.  There is more to do.  I can't tell you how that answer came to me really, but it was an answer and I recognize it as an answer to my prayer.  And, it was motivating.  I really wasn't looking forward to coming to Utah again.  I'm tired, and quite frankly, a little burned out.  But I'm glad we're here.  This is where Sammy needs to be right now, and I feel like I have the Lord's support in finding what therapy Sammy needs.  That's a good feeling.

  1. Jenny, I have been thinking about doing Now I Can with my son. I am stressed about the cost. Has it been worth it for Sammy? Better than traditional PT? I dont understand the suit...what does it do?
