A Good Report From Dr. Esposito

Dr. Esposito called last night to discuss Molly's X-Rays. He thought that everything looked like it was healing nicely and seemed happy with her progress.

She is starting to crawl with her left leg, but not her right, so she is doing a combination of dragging herself and crawling. She has only moved a few feet up to this point, but I think she is going to begin to be more and more mobile in the coming days.

We are supposed to let her do things at her own pace as far as position and mobility at this point. He felt that she would be feeling a lot better closer to the 8 week point.

Her right leg isn't able to completely straighten at this point, so we are going to talk to the PT and OT about making a straight splint to put her leg in to help stretch her muscles and ligaments.

There are 3 new videos that Jim took while I was away.

Here is a video of Molly wanting to be tickled CLICK HERE

Video 2 is of Molly talking CLICK HERE

The last video is of Molly getting the hang of her Star Car CLICK HERE
