Shoulder Dystocia - Erb's Palsy Part 1

7 bulan sudah pun berlalu, saat melihat tangan kanan anakku terkulai layu...
Hati ini sentiasa berharap, keajaiban itu akan berlaku..
Tangannya itu akan menggapai laju..
Menyambut dan menghulurkan jari2nya itu padaku..

"Brachial Plexus Palsy is paralysis of the arm caused by injury to the arm's nerves or Brachial Plexus. Erb's palsy is a form of Brachial plexus palsy whereby two of the arm's main nerves are damaged, specifically the upper trunk C5-C6. Most people have never heard of Brachial Plexus Palsy unless they or somebody they know are dealing with it. It is important to raise awereness of this issue, particularly to women who are pregnent, as this injury is largely preventable. Brachial plexus injuries most commonly occur during the birthing process when the babies shoulder becomes stuck behind the pubic bone, known as shoulder dystocia. When excessive force is used to pull the baby out it stretches the brachial plexus nerves and varying degrees of injury can occur. Most injuries will heal themselves, but there are some that require surgery."

Buat Ibu2/Ayah2 yang mengalami nasib yang sama seperti saya dan suami, jangan risau dan cemas! You are not alone! Please follow the instructions given by doctor. Lakukan langkah2 fisio/senaman/urutan yang disyorkan oleh pakar pada anak anda. Lakukan setiap hari, setiap waktu tanpa jemu! Setiap saat amatlah berharga. Jangan biarkan tangan/jari jemari anak anda kaku tanpa digerakkan. Move it! It worth!
Setiap bulan saya dan suami akan nampak new improvement pada tangan anak kami. Walaupun sedikit namun mampu menenangkan hati kami.
