A Good Check Up

Molly has had a good week and has been healing quickly. She has been standing here and there for a moment or two at a time, but no more. We haven't been encouraging any standing and put her walker away for the week. We went to see the Orthopedist today and took some X-Rays to check on things. There is new bone forming and he has given us the go ahead to bring the walker out and encourage her to do whatever she is comfortable with. She already took a spin around the playroom and walked for almost a dozen steps. What a relief! I was worried it might be a month or more before we would be able to work on this again.

I am including a video of Molly trying out a power chair at the PT's office. It was SO fun to see her mobile on her own. It was also terrifying, but I think it is going to be great for her.

I found Molly a wheelchair accessible playhouse this weekend at a yard sale and we have put it in the playroom and she LOVES it! One whole side of the house opens up so that you can wheel yourself in - it is perfect for her! Here is a video of her seeing the house for the first time CLICK HERE.
