OT eval for Liam
So the gagging and throwing up of foods and the avoidance of playground equipment has really increased over the past month with our youngest son Liam, so we decided to go through our insurance and get an OT eval through a higly recommended provider. Since he doesn't have the anxiety that Thomas has, we didn't feel he needed a specialized out of pocket therapist. Liam did great through the eval and did everything they asked of him. They did feel he would benefit from OT for an 8 week session to start, which is what our insurance currently provides. My husband and I knew that adding yet another therapy to my daily schedule would be stressful, not to mention it is a half hour away, but we both felt we needed to give it a try. They will be doing swing work, some core strenthening, gross motor skills work and also feeding therapy. He had his first session today which went well and next week I will be bringing preferred and non preferred foods for them to work with. Very curious to see how they will work with him through his gagging issues.
