Exclamation

I have gone "officially" to PT/OT for initial evaluations 3 times and was not impressed. The 1st seemed impressed that I didn't seem really bad and gave me tasks that seemed really simple compared to daily things I required from myself. The 2nd I had me do "busy" work on an isolated weekly period and I stopped going. The 3rd had me doing something I felt was like trying to run before I could walk so never went back after that 1st visit. Perhaps OT/PT I saw were better equipped to work with major physical changes from major accidents or events, not from this capricious "creeping paralysis". From self-toileting to opening packages in boxes, swathed in tape and bubble wrap holding dollhouse miniatures using the one hand I just do my best to do stuff all the time. I have logic and memory stuff on computer and see how spot on I am some days. I feel constant obstacles to overcome are better than only weekly ones. Even typing this involves eye-hand coordination and cognitive skills.
