Lots have happen since my last update! Now that we are straightening these issues out finally getting back to  updates:

The first step in our daughter's recovery was to stabilize her sleep to achieve good quality sleep and addressed focusing issues. Her neurologist prescribed medications that works.

Then our daughter got an MRI that showed a bulging disc between C6 and C7 which suggested a pinched nerve. The occupational therapist felt the area and suggested I ask the Doctor if we can assume it is a pinched nerve. Since the MRI showed the problem we can use pinched nerve to describe it.

Now that we understand the problem we are working together to better describe it and figure out where the headaches start. So here is what we think if she raises her left arm over her head and rotates the elbow and fore arm she experience noticeable pain over the left side of her forehead and temporal area. Raising her arm over head to stretch without rotation we do not see quick on set of a headache on the left side of her head.

We are figuring  out ways of testing the right arm overhead to make sure we do no see quick on set of headaches when we use the right arm over her head.

This is where we are at so far!

Happy 2013,

The editing department explain everything that they did mainly focusing on  grammar and what they did and why. I am getting a real education on sentence structure. This is very detail work and needs to be gone through one comment at a time. So it is time to get through it and send it back the holidays are official done so my break is over. Got a call from the publisher  wondering when I plan to send it back, so time to get through this phase.

This is called an author's BIO that I submitted with the book! You will see I got a lot of practice documenting client's progress in my previous jobs. They told me to keep it to 100 words this is what I came up with!
