I can finally load my pictures. These are from the football game where Quinton's coach let Chance lead the team onto the field and let him 'coach' from the sidelines.




Chance is progressing nicely. He continues with his speech, OT and PT. Great news with OT.....there is movement in Chance's left hand. This has NEVER before happened. The therapist stimulates his arm and hand and he is actually able to pick up small objects. He can't let them go yet, but with time, she is confident that it will happen. She feels that this surgery was probably the best thing that could have happened to his hand.

He got his new orthotics on Thursday....yellow cushions inside with black velcro. We found sneakers this weekend that are black and........yup.....yellow.
Tomorrow, we go for his follow-ups with Dr. Vining, Dr. Jallo and Heather. They are going to be so amazed with him.

I just have to say....I am SO GLAD that we went through with this surgery. Chance's last seizure was on August 4, 2008. That is 8 WEEKS AGO!!!! 2 months have passed and there hasn't been any seizure activity at all!! His speech is better, his attention span is better, his right fingers can move (with conscious effort), there isn't anything that I can say that I am not happy about. It has been an amazing journey.

We are still waiting for the bike wish to be posted. Hopefully, it will be out there soon.

That's all for now, thanks for checking up on Chance.
