Well, we are through the ninth week and Miles has been allowed to "resume normal activities as he is able." Nice to get that kind of clearance from the doctor! His progress has been good, and he occasionally experiences discomfort rather than pain. He still gets tired out easily, but his eagerness to please means that most therapy sessions are complete ones and he crashes later at home. Favorite activities continue to be the pool; hippotherapy; playing with other kids; and anything to do with animals (dogs, cats, rabbits, etc.). We're going to start having some time in the stander and see if we can't get some weight bearing in that left leg!
Miles also visited a new friend in the hospital this week, Finn. Finn had a similar surgery to Miles and was sporting a blue cast. Miles was a very good visitor while Finn was sleeping and was mostly quiet. He was an even better visitor when Finn woke up. We hope that Finn has gotten to go home by now and that his recovery goes smoothly!
