Spencer Walks! |

 After a lot of physical therapy and more prosthetic fittings than I care to go into. Spencer was set to talk his first run on his prosthetics. He was fitted at Shriners with a set of "stubbies" which were sockets that basically ended in blocks of wood that were stable platforms.
He had basically been in the seated posistion his entire life so it was difficult for him to even be in the standing position. He still does exercises laying on his belly to keep his front muscles stretched out.
Watching my son walk for the first time is beyond description. In fact, I won't even try. I was overcome with more emotions than I can describe. The next part of the journey had begun... with a few small steps
