  • Dear Friends, I Just Visited ALYN Hospital, One of My Favorite Places in Israel, Where One Therapist Caught My Attention… Magi
    From the desk of Arthur Horwitz Dear Friends, I just visited ALYN Hospital, one of my favorite places in Israel, where one therapist caught my attention… Magic Michael, a “medical magician”,was working hand-in-hand with a physiotherapist, coaxing “Karim” to walk a balance beam, while his mother and older brother watched. Karim was swatting balloons that Magic Michael tossed in his direction. Dressed like a clown, Magic Michael engaged the boy in some fencing, using long, slender balloons as swords. Karim’s older brother couldn’t contain himself and jumped in to play too; while his mother, wrapped from head to toe in modest garb, watched silently, but with appreciative eyes. Karim, a Muslim Gaza resident, was in the wrong place at the wrong time. A homicide bomber from Gaza, intending to explode himself in the midst of Israeli soldiers guarding an entry point into Israel, detonated prematurely and hit Karim. The bombing sent this innocent young boy into a coma for three weeks. When he awakened he faced a host of physical disabilities and was referred to ALYN. Only Magic Michael, with tzitzes dangling from a clown’s vest, could coax the boy into doing his physical therapy. As Karim’s therapy was ending, a 4-year-old boy, “David”,entered the room with his mother, also covered almost head to toe in modest, Orthodox garb. David, too, was almost totally covered, but in stark white gauze bandages. The exposed part of the boy’s face was beet red and blotchy. One of his arms was set at almost a 90-degree angle.

Halliwick-Based Aquatic Assessments: Reliability and Validity Ruthy Tirosh, Michal Katz-Leurer, and Miriam D. Getz Purpose: To investigate the reliability and validity of 2 aquatic functional- assessment tests (Water Orientation Test of Alyn 1 and 2: WOTA1, WOTA2) for evaluating adjustment and functional ability in the aquatic environment based on the Halliwick concept. Methods: Thirty-two children with disabilities participated in the reliability study. Thirty-three other children participated in the validity study, which tested the correlations between the WOTA total score and motor performance on land. Results: Test–retest reliability for total score was found to be excellent for both WOTA1 (ICC = .97) and WOTA2 (ICC = .97).
