I had a wonderful session with a client who diagnosed with cerebral palsy. Every staff and carers know the client likes music; we usually sing songs and create/ improvise music together. But it was her first time she tried to out the guitar since we've been worked together for 8 months. She picked the strings by herself with her fingers and strummed slowly, and then she gave me a big smile and playing with confidence. I saw how hard she tried to do what she wants, but at the same time, it seems she was telling me: Look! I'm playing your guitar. We played together more than 10 minutes until we say goodbye.
It was a small improvement, but it’s important and significant change in her life. Not only will to build a confidence, but also improve her fine / gross motor skills and her brain function.
