Day 213 - Sunday 27th November
Karen's New Tricks
I forgot to mention some achievements that kp has been dead chuffed about over the last couple of weeks.
About 2 weeks ago, she mentioned trick #1
She could wash her right hand with her left hand. She was keen to demonstrate it. I looked on. She was basically opening her left hand whilst rubbing her right hand around her left hand. It was a little sad to see, but the fact she is thinking about using it more (without prompting) is excellent.
Last night...........she announced that she could pull her right sleeve up her arm with her left hand. She basically used her left finger to hook the sleeve and 50% of the movement was her left hand holding the sleeve so it couldn't move, and the other 50% was kp moving her right arm in the direction so her sleeve would go up.
It's all things she couldn't do a few weeks ago.......I am very pleased she is so chuffed at her new achievements.
