Today was Caleb's ortho appt. The doc was greatly impressed with his progression. His foot is very flexible and looking great. However, my hopes that the brace would come off for half the day were crushed. The doc said he could increase his "break" time from 1 hour to 4 hours a day, and maybe in Aug. we could go down to wearing the brace and nap time and bed time only. I was a little sad. I was wanting more freedom for Caleb so badly, but the doc knows best.

Poor Caleb! Hopefully the time will breeze by. At least there was some good news! That picture is simply beautiful!
I know you wish Caleb had more freedom but maybe with the freedom, he wouldn't snuggle so much (he is really goin' for the sympathy...wink...wink).
hang in there...the way I get through life no matter what it is I face is "One day at a time."
Caleb will be SOOOOO happy to have 4 hours free--this is huge for him. We are glad he is progressing, and just think, in Aug, another improvement. Success sometimes comes in baby steps!
Great picture!! I'm sorry the doc appt didn't go as you hoped but hey 4 hours is more than double what he did have. Before long the brace will be a thing of the past. Hang in there.
