let the good times roll!

Asher's wheelchair is in!

We won't be able to pick it up until mid-October because the clinic is so backed up, but I'm just excited to know that it's there waiting for us.

Watch out, world!

Asher's on the honor roll

For PT, that is!


Okay, so there's not really an Honor Roll.  I made that up.  But, Asher did receive the following progress report the other day:



Progress to date: Asher has made excellent progress with his physical therapy program.  He now sits independently for indefinite periods of time, pivots in sitting, reaches for and obtains a toy and plays with it in upright sitting for indefinite periods.  He can transition to standing from short sitting with hands at an anterior support surface.  He can stand with two hands held.  He will stand in parallel bars and has been observed to take two steps with minimal assistance.  He can transition from floor sitting to supine independently.




Look at all those things our boy can do!  We're very proud of him, and eternally grateful for his two wonderful physical therapists.
