To my surprise I discovered that as I massaged those tendons underneath the knee, her foot began to move back and forth an inch — something she hasn’t been able to do for months, at least, and proof that the left knee joint wasn’t frozen. I congratulated her. It was also easier doing her arms and hands and other parts of her body after I turned her. And the turning itself went very easily indeed — she didn’t cry at all, and seemed to be at some sort of peace. I told her she’d done well.

I told her often how great it was to see her move, and that her motions only meant that her body was more than willing to cooperate if allowed to. I do think she has either learned that by now, or is on the way. What counts is keeping it up, without trying too hard, and letting the body do its thing.
