Yes, Jordan does go to PT... but so far not very often. The service is provided through California Children's Services. I think they also offer OT as well. Here is the application link: http://www.dhcs.ca.gov/formsandpubs/forms/Forms/ChildMedSvcForms/dhcs4480.pdf

Where did you find the pool therapy for your son? Right now Jordan takes swimming lessons, but I would love for him to get therapy in the pool.

I'm hoping you and your family are well!

Even though he isn't doing that anymore I think that is why is pulmonary function is still good. Jon had his pool therapy through a private/non-profit orthopedic clinic here in Long Beach. They had quite a few young patients with various diagnoses. For awhile there were two other DMD boys in with him, one older and one younger than Jon. They only had 2 or 3 patients in a the pool at a time and had both a PT and a PT assistant in the pool with the kids. The Dr. who sees him at our local Children's Hospital referred him.

My name is Susan, my son Jonathan is 19 and we are in Southern California.
Sorry to have to meet you under these circumstances. Just wanted to send you a quick note to tell you to make sure you apply for California Children's Services. Here's a link: http://www.dhcs.ca.gov/services/ccs/Pages/apply.aspx. You may be able to get financial help if you meet the criteria, you can also get physical therapy and occupational therapy services. They will also send a therapist to your child's school to help them meet his needs.
