We finally got Maria’s Miniwalk walker delivered today. They just dropped it off, didn’t come in and set it up so I don’t think it’s properly adjusted, but at least it’s here! Maria fell asleep as it arrived so we haven’t had a chance to see how much fiddling it needs. Perhaps we’ll give it a try later this afternoon.
I heard that the stander is coming this or next Tuesday. We’ll see. Who ever would have predicted that I’d actually be excited about a stander and a walker for my daughter? You never know what life has in store for you…
Tomorrow is the Hydrocephalus Brunch and Support Group at St Joe’s. It’s the 1st support group meeting that I’ve heard of in Phoenix, so we’re going to go check it out.
We tried Maria in the walker for a bit last night. It needs to be adjusted by the PT for the right fit and she wasn’t wearing her AFOs but we were just messing around with the new toy. Maria seems to like it. I prompted her a bit and on two occasions she took several steps in a row on her own. I think it’s going to make a real difference.
