Well put Shirley! I wish all OTs would have an understanding of their
own profession. You seem to understand the concept, and you are not
even in the profession. What has Ron done in his treatment sessions
with your daughter that has made the most impact for her well being and
her independence? Thank you so much for sharing your insight.

Unfortunatly I probably would not have been inpressed. I say that
because we had OT's in the hospital and in rehab, they did just what
you explained....focused on the upper extremities and it did not help
my daughter very much. By that I mean it did not help her to get back
to the normal way of doing things, it did not put her whole body
together. I know that sounds a little unprofessional, but that's the
way I see it. Seems when a patient, especially like my daughter, has
been in bed for so long, they have forgotten how everything works
together.

Shirley, what if I did OT the way past20OT's had done? If I focused
treatment on the upper extremity would you still say "we are beginning
to see how well OT works for our loved ones"?
Just to remind everyone, Shirley is the mother of a patient that I'm
seeing. She has been exposed to a LOT a therapy.
