Moving forward
We got a new computer this week at home and I'm not used to a Mac--so I don't know how to copy and paste--so this post is a bit out of order...bare with me :)!
Today Ainsley and I spent the afternoon at the hospital for her two doctors apts: physical therapy and the hearing aid clinic. Here is Ainsley before her PT apt. We brought her Physical Therapist, Shannon, a little gift. I stopped by to see Shannon yesterday to schedule an appointment for the end of May to check Ainsley's head one last time and she said, we need to see her tomorrow due to getting her fitted for a head band if she needed. Shannon's only opening was her lunch time--she graciously saw Ainsley over her lunch hour--so we brought Shannon some Paula Dean goodies (they have these at Wal-Mart now).
We learned that Ainsley's head is improving--but she is still failing in 2 of the 4 quadrants--so Shannon recommended a head "band". We will find out early next week what the next steps are to getting her fitted asap so we can begin the process of reshaping Ainsley's head. Shannon estimated she would need to wear it for 4 months. Ryan and I are both very thankful tonight for good health care and insurance...and we are so thankful we live so close to a great medical hospital! We are going to keep moving forward and start this next process for our little A. She is a trooper and such a happy, joyful baby. We thank God for her everyday.
Our sweet pea!
We went to Buffalo Wild Wings for dinner tonight (no Ryan didn't let Ainsley try a wing, thank goodness--someday)!
In between Ainsley's doctor's apts we had 45 minutes so we went to the first floor lounge in the hospital and people watched. Ainsley loves to just watch other people--especially kids!
Ainsley was super tired after both of her doctor's apts today--she took a little nap on the drive home!
Ainsley getting fitted for a new ear bud for her hearing aid--she is sleeping peacefully! Thanks to Dr. Shea for taking the photo of Ainsley--I was trying to hold her still for 5 min so the impression would take :)! She is such a good sleeper!
