Now I Can Superstar Spotlight  Tessa recently finished her first session at Now I Can. While she was here, Tessa made some great progress. She is starting to have a much more relaxed body and is able to place her hand on the floor demonstrating emerging protective reactions. She now responds easily to cues to correct her posture. She is no longer pulling her hands tightly to her chest and she opens her hands on command as well as voluntarily. Tessa is also reaching with both hands at the same time and her Mom says, "She is already holding her head up and keeping her back straight when she is riding in her wheelchair." Here Mom also says, "I like that when she is finished with therapy she is so relaxed with her arms down and her head up." Tessa likes Barbie Dolls and My Little Ponies. Her eyes light up when she sees any member of her family. Tessa is a wonderful girl!

A few of our favorite things...
Hey, we're not Oprah, but here are a few of our “favorite things” for children--especially those with special needs. Maybe these sites can be a resource to you all year through. --Memo Orthotic Shoes. They are spendy, but high quality orthotic shoes made to provide excellent support without a brace. They come in sandals and boot styles, too! --Myself Belts! Fabric belts that Velcro for easy on and off. These belts come in children and adult sizes and are perfect for those who struggle with fine motor tasks for any reason. -- Dr. Christopher’s Herbal Drops—tasty and formulated just for children. Kid-e-Reg (helps avoid constipation) and Kid-e-Mune and Kid-e-Well (help to keep kids healthy!). Get them on the www.nowican.org website at a discount!
