Hi Everyone...I KNOW I just put a post on here about our "workerbees" but I wanted to take a second to brag on Mark and his continued progress. Last Thursday he was able to roll over and sit up and beg...no I'm kidding! Seriously, he rolled over by himself and was able to sit up by himself. This was a VERY BIG step in the right direction. He said it felt good to get those feet on the floor!
YESTERDAY, he was able to use the lightgait with the treadmill. (see previous post about lightgait). He walked for 13 min. in 3 to 4 min. intervals. He has to have help picking up his feet because his ankles are so week BUT he was able to use his upper legs to propel himself. This is the first step to MANY more milestones for him.
I am just tremendously proud of his determination. (just tell him he can't...have I mentioned that doing that is a really bad thing??) He is such a hard worker and just so amazing to me...thought I would share!
