Bryer's Therapies

Every week, Bryer participates in a full schedule of therapies designed to help her maintain her skills. Over the years, we've seen periods of progress, like learning to walk at 22 months, and also moments of slight regression. We stay consistent with her therapies week after week to help protect the skills she has and support continued growth.
