EXCITING NEWS!!!!!
Matthew stood up today!!!!
During his physical therapy session he was assisted by therapists and a sling, but Matthew made alot of the effort on his own by leaning forward and grabbing onto the parallel bars with his left hand to help pull himself up. When those in the room were cheering him on, they told Matthew to look in the mirror and see himself standing. He got a big grin on his face when he saw his accomplishment!!! It took a lot of effort and he couldn't stand for long, but it was wonderful!!! Matthew had to adjust his weight to his right side because his left ankle isn't strong enough to hold the weight.
Praise the Lord for BIG victories!!!!
