Progress Update - 6/25/08

Steve had an Awesome Day yesterday!! I'm so excited to report about it!!

Danny spent several hours with him yesterday and shared all of this with me. He was so excited as well. But big step #1 was that Danny led Steve to accepting Jesus. :) Way to go!!!

Physical therapy progress was amazing as well...

As I think you know, his right side is the side that still has some paralysis issues. Well, yesterday, the therapist had him curling his arm (like showing he has a muscle), she had him make a right angle and put his arm down, then had him hold a water bottle and pretend he was going to drink from it. He was able to do ALL of those things!! She said Monday he could hardly move anything. What a huge step!

Then, they took him to the gym to get him set up on the parallel bars to stand up. Well, Danny said that they were so busy trying to get him to stand up, they weren't really helping him stand up. So he was doing that almost completely on his own!

Steve had such an amazing day! I know you are as excited as I was to hear about it!
