Grace has been discharged

Today was Grace’s last speech therapy session for the year, and it was a great way to end off the year. Today was not just her last session for the year, but also her last session.

Sue did a reassessment and is happy that Grace is speaking at the level she should be. In 7 months Grace has gone from practically not speaking at all, to speaking as much and as well as she should be for her age. Now she wakes up in the morning and starts speaking, and then carries on right until she goes to sleep at night.

Sue has been really impressed with her (and extremely complimentary of her as a child). Grace has made great leaps and bounds forward and has surprised Sue every month from about the 4th visit. And now there is very little left to work on. Donné and I have certainly learnt a lot through the process and are more equipped for the future.

I am so excited to have reached this point so quickly. It is such a blessing that Grace has done well, worked hard and responded to the therapy well – thank you Lord.

In today’s session Sue put a dog paw print stamp on Grace and told her it was her dogs’ feet, and that they had been digging up her garden. This stuck with Grace and every time she would look at her hand and see the stamp she would say, “Naughty puppies, eating up plants.”
