No More MAFOs!

Josh was cleared last week to walk, stand and transfer
without his MAFO braces. In fact, he will only use them
for walking long distances in therapy. This will make Josh
more comfortable and eliminate the need to put them on / take
them off 10 times a day...

Josh has regained a considerable range of motion in his right
arm and hand. We are now working on dexterity,
assembling LEGO models, using a tablet computer and working
on puzzles.

All else is on track and going well.

Pictures and more news later!

  3. You're doing fantastic Josh. A great job by the rest of the family too. A shout out to everybody. Looking back at some of the pictures I just can't get over how grown up everyone is. It seems like it happened all of a sudden. It seems like only yesterday everyone was running around and playing on the rock and trees at Upattinas. Anyhow you've grown into a fine looking young man. Keep up the good work, it's paying off!

    Blessings to all - The Wallace Clan
