Recovery day


Sophia had a quiet day, she is as you would guess in the process of recovering from her surgery. She is a little puffier today then she was yesterday but this is very expected with the amount of surgery and liquids they gave her during surgery. Today the occupational therapist and physical therapist stopped by to see her. They have noticed that Sophia has been holding her hands a little differently so they have given her a baby splint for her free hand. It will help hold her hand at a more neutral position thus helping her wrist muscles. She wears the splint for 4 hours, then it is off for 4 hours. This continues throughout the whole day, she'll be doing this for weeks to come. The splints don't hurt her, in fact they will help her not develop future problems.
