Amber on playground

Amber has a ROBPI and just jumped up on the playground equipment one day. You can hear her answer when I ask her when she started doing this equipment say, "I used to be scared, and now I'm not." I was so excited, as all you parents who have a child w/ BPI will understand how difficult it is for them to do monkey bars and such like Amber does in this video.

It's amazing that she can do that. Keep her going and working that arm!!!I will never be able to do that and i wish i could. I can hardly tell which arm it is and that is very impressive.

Thanks so much for the comment and encouragement for Amber. It is a blessing that she's got so much functional movement thanks to hard work, therapy, and one surgery with care by Dr. Kozin. I wish you continued successes Kisa.

Wow! Good on her. I have movement in my BPI arm but as much as I tried I was never able to do that. It makes me proud that she's come so far. Congrats to you both.
