Vibrational Therrapy

Tália has been using the vibrosphere almost daily since December. This therapy seems to have really helped her muscle tone. It also helps us to maintain her tone if we are unable to go to our physio sessions of if she is tired. The vibrosphere allows her towork her muscles without having to put inas much physical effort. For a child like her with energy issues,it has made a great difference in our lives.

The first step to walking and independence

Tália has just been given a walker and I am just so amazed but how she has taken to it. When I saw her taking these steps I felt very emotional - we are getting closer to the dream. She works so hard, day in and day out. It makes me so happy to see her getting closer to mobility and independence.

Speech Therapy with Mum

Do something about it

Well, yes I was feeling rather sorry for myself when I wrote my last post. I guess there was so much thinking to do that I felt emotionally overwhelmed. Also my daughter's (Natasha's)breahing has ben awful. We have found out that her adenoids are enlarged and she is presently on treatment - I am hoping that we can avoid operating. This problem has caused her to experience extreme tiredness, hearing difficulty and irritability. Anyway, now that we know what is going on, we are doing our best to help her.

Anyway I have snapped out of it and now I have decided to take the bull by the horns. I have decided to throw myself into understanding the science behind mito and try to understand how cells work. If the mutation that they have found in Talia proves to be pathological, then it will be the first of this type - can you believe it, truely unique...very bizarre really.

I am also going to attend a course in Madrid to understand a little more of the techniques and therapies used with special needs kids. Whilst in the middle of nowhere, I am close to many European Capitals and I am going to do my best to understand how the human body functions.
