So here is an update on how Isobel's physical therapy is going. She has been doing
great walking on her own more, but she's still not off and running yet. Her therapist noticed that she stands with her right leg locked to the side and kind of tilted in on her arch. So an ortho tech looked at her feet and legs and said that she would benefit from some special boots that help straighten them. So yesterday after
her PT session Linda (the ortho tech) made casts of Isobel's feet and legs to send in to get custom made boots. It will take about one month to get them back and they're SUPER expensive (thank goodness for insurance!) so we're really hoping they will help her. She is still making excellent strides and tries so hard. Right now she is able to walk across the room by herself, and she is just now learning how to stand up
without holding on to something. We are so proud of her! She did great getting her casts on...Daddy held her in his lap and they all sang songs. She showed everyone how many songs she already knows the words to! Anyway, we'll keep you posted on how she's doing. We'll all just continue getting ready for Christmas...the tree is finally up!
