I'm glad Kevin had a good birthday with good food and good friends!
I wonder if that speech therapist is inexperienced, incompetent, or just stubborn? I agree with the other posts that you should sit in on a session with Kevin, if he's ok with it. And if you can get him to go back. It was looking so hopeful, too. It must be so frustrating because it takes so long to get a therapy appointment, then the therapist may or may not show up, and when they do, they screw up! Have I got it about right? I'm sure you'll sort it out though, I'm just sorry you and Kevin have to struggle with every little detail.
Praying you get some rest and do something fun this weekend. You're all in my thoughts.
This blog is dedicated to my son, Kevin, who was critically wounded in Afghanistan on May 31, 2008. My daughter, Brianna, and I left our homes and our lives to be by his side from that day forward.
Here is where you will learn of all of our accomplishments as well as the trials of his recovery of such serious injuries.
Although we have come through the acute stage of his burns, we are now focusing on the rehab for his brain injury. For those of you unaware, Kevin has lost nearly 85% of the function of the left side of his brain, causing him to not be able to do much (yet) with his right side and he can only say a few words so far. He also has to learn to write and he needs to remember everything in his past life.
Basically, we have 'started over'.
