May 5, 2018

Today was an amazing day for Will. He slept in and woke up to his day nurse introducing herself as Claire. He immediately saw she was wearing a CGM (Glucose Monitor) on her arm and they talked for at least 10 minutes about diabetes and their various devices. Then Mommy arrived and it was time for Physical Therapy. First up, sitting on the bed for maybe 5 minutes. He has a bit of trouble balancing (continually leaning to the right) but otherwise...success! Next up, standing. Then, marching in place. And finally, walking around the bed. Major success. He was grinning ear to ear while his Mom and Aunt were trying not to break out in tears of pride. We put him in the wheelchair and headed outside to look at the koi pond. When we got back, he got some new temporary leg braces since he had outgrown his other pair. After some lunch, he hit the pillow hard and has been out for about two hours. His brother, sister and Daddy are on their way so he will wake up to yet another set of adventures.
