Jenna and I wanted to have some fun with healthy eating. Jenna is my Teenage Partial Paraplegic patient. She is a delight to care for. I used to care for Jenna back when she was a toddler and have been friends with the family since that time. They moved a couple times and now I am back caring for her. She is now 17. She was born with NF1 and several other health issues. Because of the NF1 she had corrective surgery for Scoliosis which dislodged a tumor and caused her partial paraplegia. The Dr's. said she would never walk again and of course this is not the first time Jenna has left people in awe. Jenna is working hard with her PT, OT, Nurses, Family and cheered by friends to walk again. We are working on a song about walking and hope to record it soon.
"12 Nurse Visits" is a little fun we had with a familiar song to encourage Jenna to eat more fruits and vegetables and to drink more water and eat prunes.(new for her, she said she did not like them and of course, I asked have you tried them and she said no, well, she tried them and likes them) Having regular Bowel Movements is a major concern for Quadriplegic and Paraplegic patients. Enjoy, pass it on to your friends.
For Healthy Living, Dawn
