Thursday!

Today Billy didn't seem as fatigued with the physical therapy that he did. Some days it just seems to take so much out of him and although today he was tired, he just didn't seem as tired as I have seen him some days, especially yesterday.
He worked more on the steps(just platforms placed on the floor), so he can get used to the motion and the feel of stepping onto stairs and back down. e did really good with this and at one point, was using a crutch under one arm to make sure he had his balance. He happens to have really good balance.
He also worked on holding a bar some more, to continue working with his arm and shoulder of his right arm. Then he was working on rolling a ball around with his right hand, to work on straightening it, so that it will be more functional. He was able to do this more times then yesterday and found it a tad bit easier today. He still has lots of work to do, but each day he is putting in great effort and does his very best.
Billy also had a change of food today for a treat from Rodney and Samantha. For lunch we had, McDonald's, chicken nuggets, burger and fries. For supper we had, one of Billy's favorites; Panda Express(which for those who don't know, is Chinese food). He was very thankful to have something different then hospital food today.
