Running with the big kids

Emerson has been receiving physical therapy through ECI since she was 6 months old. She needed it to help with her torticollis which was causing her plagiocephaly. As an infant, Emerson also had a pretty severe case of gastric reflux and could not tolerate her tummy time. So Emerson was slow to develop the muscle strength necessary to sit up, crawl, stand and walk. But in time, and with therapy, she reached all those milestones and now we are happy to report that she has fully caught up and runs, jumps and skips with the best of them! As Christie, her devoted PT put it, "She's too good for me now" when Emerson scored at the 36 month level during her most recent ECI evaluation. We have been blessed to have received Emerson's services through ECI, which is a program supported through Easter Seals. Easter Seals is a great non-profit organization that assists children and families without judgement or request for payment. If you are able, it would mean a great deal to a child in need if you would make a donation to this awesome organization.
