a goal scored!

Despite our scepticism that she was way off being able to sit independently, Freya can now sit by herself without support.  She cannot do it for too long, but yesterday she sat cross-legged on her bed playing with her ipad for at least 15 minutes.  In her wheelchair she no longer slumps to the side, but is able to stay upright without the support of pillows.  Her brain's left hemisphere is rewiring itself to make the necessary connections to her left side to give her neck, shoulder and trunk the necessary strength and balance to achieve this important milestone.  We have taken some photos that I will include in my next post.
