New Braces

Merry Christmas everyone! Its been quite a year that's for sure. I remember last year at this time when Ethan came up to me and asked for "New legs that work!!!"...hence our journey began. Needless to say Ethan has his new legs that work...it took a trip to Germany and and an orthopedic surgery but we have loose legs and flat feet! Yesterday we got our new AFOs (braces) and now we can go to town on walking. Ethan is walking better today (even without his braces) than he has EVER walked (even at his prior best). Now that we have the new braces, we're really going to focus on walking more with the walker and retire the wheelchair as much as we can...once that is accomplished, then we'll move on to the crutches.

Thank you to everyone for your continued support and prayers--we couldn't have gotten to where we are today without them. To all of my new friends I have met along the way this past year... you mean sooo much to me; thank you! I am truly blessed to have met so many WONDERFUL people ...you are treasured beyond words.

I will be posting some new pics/video shortly...so stay tuned... Til then, Happy Holidays!!!

God Bless--
