Cayden
As many of you know, Cayden is our 4 yr old. She has PVL, cerebral palsy, epilepsy, cortical blindness(please visit her website to get more info http://caydentowery.tripod.com)
Cayden gets occupational therapy 3 days a week 1 hour each day, physical therapy 3 days a week 1 hours each day, and speech therapy 3 days a week 1 hour each day. My hope for Cayden is that she can learn to operate an electric wheelchair. right now her movements are very uncoordinated and jerky. She is learning cause and effect for now. If when she learns cause and effects hopefully her movements will be coordinated enough so that she can move an electric chair forward and backward. That would be an awesome accomplishment for her.
Cayden is also learning to use a communication device. As of right now she is not working on words with the communication device, she is learning how to activate it and what happens when she activates it…”cause and effect”. It would be awesome if eventually she could communicate a few words with a communication device!
