New Wheels

Today Bob got a new wheelchair. This one is lighter than his last and Bob can use his left foot to help move forward as it doesn't rest on any kind of support like his right foot does. My mom said he has gained significant independence already, going out of his room by himself and strolling around the cafeteria by himself.

During physical therapy today Bob used the lokomat again. Bob also had occupational therapy and speech therapy. Caitlin, Bob's speech therapist practiced saying "Mark" with him and he did a great job. Below is the video shot by my mom. Tune in until the end when the always joyful Caitlin finally convinces Bob to turn to the camera and he displays the famous "meh" face:

Bob continues to improve and impress. We are happy with his progress. Thanks for reading and keep the positive thoughts and prayers coming.
