Today we brought Jonathan to the Society for the Physically Disabled (Tampines Branch) for
assessment. I was a
little uncomfortable at first because the Indian OT sat there looking
at Jonathan for a while and I was thinking "hmmm what is he thinking
about". He was so quiet! haha. We'll see what results they have about Jonathan.
So after everything
was over, including asking questions about Jonathan, we have arranged to have therapy every Wednesday, once a week for the time being.
Jonathan said he didn't mind the place. Me too. It's quiet
and nice and not a lot of people. And most of all, it's at Tampines.
We
will start therapy next week at 9.15am! It's been a while since we get
up so early, although on certain days, Jonathan does get up at 8am. I have to be the disciplined one haha!
We
are going to try once a week first. Therapy session is I think 45
minutes at $54/session. I have not started applying for subsidy yet
because I'm not sure if Jonathan will be able to take PT. They
recommended 2 times/week, ie, one session PT and the other OT. But I'm
gearing more towards PT and maybe will just request for this.
Looking
forward to letting Jonathan have proper physio therapy although we discussed that maybe I
can do simple stretching and exercises at home. But the thing is I'm
not strong enough to handle Jonathan and the facilities at SPD will be
good for him. So we finally agreed that giving Jonathan an extra activity apart from
being at home or taking short walks downstairs would be a good change.
I'm praying that the motion sickness will not affect him at all.
Hoping....
Thanks for visiting and God bless!
