Week 30

We are nearing the end of the 30th week. Gracie had some changes made to her exercises and practice walking. Now we are doing half of the walks barefoot and the time has been split into 15 min regular practice walk, 10 min half foot with feet touching walking and 5 min tightrope walking. She does this barefoot and with shoes on.

She regained her lost range since we saw them last. Dont know what that was about. And Mary was thrilled with her walk - both in the braces and out of the braces. So the barefoot stuff was added. Onward and upward! Tho there is not any hope we can start moving out of the braces this summer, at least its getting better.

At soccer last week where she took her turn as goalie:

Week 29

We missed three days of exercise this week because we went on vacation to Niagara Falls. We start again today. Other days when we did exercise were uneventful. I bought her size 3 soccer spikes. SHe had trouble with her AFO on the left foot afterwards but I'm not sure if the two are related. Its cleared up now so will see what happens after practice on Thursday. Might have to try larger shoe size.

Otherwise, am going to Childrens on Wednesday to check on how she is doing with the changes in exercise.
