First Day of School

Mary's 4th grade teacher let her go to school a day early to check out her seating arrangement and make sure she could maneuver around the classroom. She has a chair to prop her leg on and she took a pillow with her today so she could prop her leg comfortably.

Today was her 1st day. She told me she didn't like it, she LOVED it and was disappointed it was only a half day. She did NOT use her wheelchair today and she said she was comfortable at school. What a great start!
Trying to sit down as much as possible before school so she didn't strain her leg
The school continues to be very welcoming, accommodating and supportive of Mary. One less thing to stress about! Thank you!!!

Mary actually did pretty well the whole day. Her leg hurt at home because we squeezed in about the same amount of PT sessions as normal but in a shorter time period. Per Dr. Scott we are powering through the PT even though her leg may be more sore from the "dent".

Mary fell asleep very quickly tonight. :-)
