Update : my Progress

27th August 2008

Hi everyone,

Louise is well . She herself has seen improvements to her condition , very small improvements but they are big to her and of course us.She does not cough as much as she used to , when she eats her food and drinks from a straw.

I have noticed that there has been another improvement .Louise used to hiccup all the time when ever she had a drink and sometimes when she eat.This has stopped .

She seems to be  improving with her speech all the time and saying longer sentences .Her top lip always moves because before the treatment she would always talk through the teeth instead of moving her top lip when talking.Louise does not seem as nervious to talk to someone new now and have a conversation.

Louise’s speech therapist has even noticed that her speech is a lot clearer and she now talks in a more longer sentence.

We have only been home for about six weeks and we have noticed those very small improvements.Hopefully we will see more to come in the next six months.

Must go .I will update you on any more improvements.

Louise’s Progress

Friday 1st August 2008

Hi everyone,It has been nearly three weeks now since we returned from China.Louise is missing all the staff at the Hospital and wants to go back to China already.

Louise keeps in regular contact with all the staff at the hospital using the internet and webcam.We have noticed small things happening since we have been home.Louise has less jerky movements and her speech is more clearer when she speaks.Louise can say longer sentences without getting very nervious and having to stop.

Louise still continues  not to wear her protective helmet on her head when she walks around the house .Louise seems to be alot more confident when she is not wearing her helmet ,for which she has always wanted to get off her head but fear of hurting herself if she fell over.

I will update you on any more improvements later
