Our New Braces!

Wednesday was our trip to Shriner's Hospital in Tampa...mission...get DAFOs and evaluation for wheelchair and walker. The trip went as well as the last one...some screaming, some sleeping, and as always, lots of eating (little piggies). Today is our second day with the braces and so far so good. Bree was having some trouble with her muscles tightening, but she's learning to relax and has had them on for almost an hour now. Paige adapted well, but still makes attempts to rip the velcro off. Here are some picture I took of the girls and the Gait Trainer.

I know, I know! Get rid of the stinkin' binky!
Bree was a little scared at first.
Well looky there...I'm standing all by myself!

So now we have to wait for all the red tape to get sorted out before we get Bree's wheelchair and Paige's walker.

This is Bree's wheelchair. It will look a little different because they are adding a seating system as well.

This is Paige's exact walker!
