Alex's new AFO

I wanted to share a few videos of Alex walking in his new AFO. It has been less than a week since he has had it and we are seeing lots of good things. First here are a pictures of the AFO and insert.


AFO for right foot

shoe insert for left foot


This first video Alex's walks down the hallway and sits down (not the best from of sitting down but we work on that eventually). Then he stands back up.....with no help. He has gotten really good at this in the last week or so. Oh and he almost always claps for himself even if no one else claps!






The next video is him walking down the hallway, stopping to try to bug Hayden (while he was taking a bath). Then on his way back he is trying to be silly and starts walking backwards. He almost falls but catches himself and then starts walking sideways.



This last one was taken almost two months ago when he was not wearing shoes and braces. It is a HUGE difference from what we are seeing now!!




I am still very excited about the brace and how well Alex is doing with it! I can't wait to see what is next!!!
