New sneakers for the new brace

Today Bob had another full plate of therapies. All the basics plus group occupational therapy. 

Bob's custom made leg brace has been made and is being used. My mom shopped at half a dozen stores and bought several pairs of sneakers over the last few days to find a pair that will fit his foot with the brace. Today she may have found the one! Bob did a lot of walking with his hemi-walker as he tried on all those different pairs of shoes. Tomorrow if Bob has physical therapy, Dan will test out a few pairs to see which one is the best fit. By the way, Bob now says "Dan" regularly!

When I called in the mid afternoon, my mom and Bob were outside enjoying another sunny spring day. Bob was playing the word tile game. He got "apple" right away but struggled with "grape". My mom had to get off the phone to give him undivided attention so I can't report on the last word of the day. 

That's all for today. Thanks for reading and keep the positive thoughts and prayers coming.
