Shoulder Baby Step!
MON SEPT 4, 2012
I have done the 'mirror' shoulder shrugs with Bob for months, boosting the stroke shoulder while he shrugged the other one. Today after the PT did major pulling and stretching on his tight shoulder muscles and had him shrug, the stroke one actually moved upward a little bit! Now I don't know if it's because he is getting a little more back on that side or if the reason it didn't shrug before was that it was frozen and she had broken it lose! At any rate, WOO HOO! another small step for mankind... er... Bobkind
During his grimacing shoulder stretches, he said in aphasia talk, "“I’ve had about 30 Sesame Streets (therapist) and she’s the best.... but I hate her”.
