Brandon update
Hello everyone,
Just wanted to update a little bit about Brandon. Sorry it’s been so long. We’re still just trying hard to do his PT at home right now. Tomorrow we’re going to Univ of WI. to see some new therapists to try and get some more equipment. We’re trying to get something similar to the electric wave machine they used in China. Brandon’s doctor has already spoken to them about getting one that they could program so that we can use it here at home. I’m also going to see if they can prescribe some more PT here in Janesville, other than what he already received thru the school system, which is only 1 hour 2 times p/wk. He needs that everyday. But Brandon is doing well, he’s able to get himself into bed now. Before we left he couldn’t get his legs up into his bed without help and now he’s doing it much better. He’s still pedaling everyday getting ready to ride his bike next summer. His Physical therapist noticed an improvements with his leg muscles, she said he could do more for a longer period of time and noticed his calf muscles are not as stiff and he’s able to keep his feet flat on the floor. So we’re still moving forward hoping and working for more. Hope everyone had a wonderful Thanksgiving and I’ll talk to you later.
Sharon
