My son Ethan has Cerebral Palsy-spastic diplegia.In July 2010 we had an adult stem cell treatment in hopes that our son would get his wish of having as he puts it "New Legs that Work". This blog is our story, adventure and progress.

We're home...
well, we were discharged a day early and actually got home last night. Ethan is doing okay...still achy and in some pain at times but definitely getting better each day.
He is pretty much refusing all "pain medications" and in turn will only take tylenol or Advil which makes it hard. He outright has told me the others make him feel icky...and I have no doubt about that as my little boy has definitely disappeared in a sea of side affects. Nevertheless, he's hanging in there. Each day will get better...and before you know it, days will turn into weeks and weeks into a month--which is when we go back. At our June 4th appt, we'll get the immobilizer bar off as well as the immobilizers will be removed (during the day at least) and they will put some walking casts on which will be good as well... I cannot wait and know that 4 weeks will fly by. :-)
Outside of that, that's about it. I'll post more later!
Until later,
Lisa
