Cooper was lucky enough to be one of 39 kids selected to attend a camp through UNC. It was called "Helping Kids With Hemiplegia", and involved the kids wearing a cast on their dominant arm for 6 hours. They were paired one on one with an OT or PT graduate student for the entire camp (10 days). The therapists made it so fun - music, crafts, dancing, etc. Cooper had a rough time because he is so young, but he did it! We hope to be lucky enough to be invited back next year, as we are already seeing improved use of his right hand! Here's some pictures from the camp:
