Today we worked on self-feeding with our absolutely amazing Occupational Therapist. Emma is having trouble seeing her food since her vision is not great (she has CVI-cortical visual impairment). We are really trying to get her to reach for her food on her tray. Emma did put her fingers in her mouth after a few bites which her OT was thrilled about! She’s gotten great with holding her pouches and also using a straw. She even grabbed for her straw while drinking! It’s incredible how such small accomplishments impact her life so much.
