Update

Sorry it has been so long since the last update! Gavin had a double ear infection a week and a half ago, and I came down with a cold about a week ago!  So Gavin and I have been home for a week! We both had cabin fever. Ali has been well. She has been really busy in all her therapies. For the last week, Ali has a cast on her left foot - for streching. PT suggested this so Ali could have a slow strech and hopefully have better range of motion in her ankle. The cast is going to come off on Tuesday. They tried to put on a cast on the right foot at the sametime, but the cast was too tight so they cut it off and will probably give it another try after the left cast comes off! Her leg has healed where she had her IV line so now Ali can take a bath - except for the cast now! Oh well, soon enough!

I have included some new pictures. PT had brought by a motorized wheelchair that is activitated by Ali pushing a button on the tray. She did okay with going straight, then PT changed the chair to go in circles and Ali kept pressing the button! It was so fun watching her scoot in the chair! There are also pictures of Ali during a PT session painting with Catie the RT and Ali on the excersise ball. Ali is working so hard in all her therapies! We are so proud of her!

Enjoy the new pictures in the 'Family Pics' link on the side bar and the short videos of Ali scooting in her chair! Oh, and Gavin and I are feeling better!
