says Cuevas Medek Exercise

We've been away from home for over 10 days trying a new form of physical therapy for Sripathi. Thanks to Aubri from www.littlebearsees.org who had tried this form of therapy for her son. She gave a good idea about the therapy and how it had helped Lukas. So here we are now in New Jersey trying the same for Sripathi and learning a home program from Azriel to continue back at home. I have to say some of the exercises were like magic when Azriel could make Sripathi sit unsupported for a few seconds. The best part about Medek is the child's reflex develops, it was amazing to see Sripathi showing signs of discomfort and shock when he knows that he might fall or lose balance in certain positions.   


We may not be able to perform all the steps that Azriel did with Sripathi, but I'm sure we have a good set of exercises for our home program. And in the next 2 days we'll have everything planned out. It is tiring like any form of physical therapy but we've found that even when Sripathi is tired he can still manage to show signs of holding his head with some support.
I'll come back with further details on the goals and take aways from this program.
