last day

Today was our last day at therapy in Sikeston. 3 weeks seems to really fly by when your on an all day schedule everyday. I wanted to take this time to say thank you again to all who are involved with making these types of trips for therapy possible. I hesitate to even list the people but I will try--thanks to family, friends, strangers, dodgeball players/volunteers/donators, cookie makers, garage sale buyers, therapists, and many more who I probably am not aware of!!! You are all making a difference in Christian's life.

I hope that the words, pictures, and videos can convey the message that therapy like this (along with others) is helping Christian get stronger which in turn helps with his progression to sit, stand, walk on his own. Our goal is for him to become more independent in every area. When we come to new places like this one it is also opening the door to learn more about equipment, techniques, and ideas to take home. I have seen a huge change in Christian's strength which is allowing him to stand longer with little assistance, walk farther and more correctly (is that a phrase?), sit up taller. . . We appreciate all of the work and love that you all put in to our son!

THANK YOU -THANK YOU

The video is of walking he did this week. Also there is a wide angle of the big room that we worked in.
