Despite everything I believe the therapy was a success. Elizabeth is more aware of her left hand and she moves her left arm more freely. Before the therapy she paused before moving her left arm and she really had to think about it, but the therapy has helped her to instinctively move her arm more freely. She is also transferring objects to her left hand better. She isn't able to grasp anything with that hand yet, but we are moving in the right direction.
I did learn that she will most likely have to do the program again once she is up walking. We have no idea when that will be so we will just wait.
Elizabeth is set to see her orthopedic and physical medicine doctor in a couple of months. We will just have to wait and see what is next for us.
Thanks everyone for your support!
