Before Vision Therapy:
Handwriting was difficult. My mom and teacher had a hard time reading what I wrote. I didn’t want to do my homework and avoided reading. I often said “I can’t do this” before even trying. I had a difficult time playing sports. I wanted to catch balls thrown to me, but missed them or dropped them. At the end of the day, I often had headaches, which made doing homework very hard.
After Vision Therapy:
My handwriting has improved and I can write in a straight line. My mom and teacher no longer ask me to erase and rewrite. I don’t mind doing my homework and I no longer have headaches at the end of the day. I still avoid reading, only because I’d rather be outside playing football! Miss Sue taught me that I can do hard things if I try and she is the best therapist in the world! She made therapy fun and I tried hard in my therapy at home because I knew Miss Sue would be proud of me.
