Today at my PT workout, Carole decided I needed to take steps! You all know that I have been practicing standing for awhile with the help of shin guards and ace bandages! Anyway, Carole put me in a diving suit (kinda) it is made out of Lycra and it helps provide feedback to my brain through deep pressure and tactile stimulation. It is called a SPIO suit. Carole also put me in a headmaster collar. The collar wraps around my neck and helps me keep it stable while Carole and my dad were helping me walk! I really liked taking some steps! It was fun and I did not cry at all! Wow what a difference the world is from up here! My mom and dad bought everything we needed so we can practice walking at home! Thanks Carole for having so much confidence in me and getting me up on my feet!
Love Malia
