Working on Standing



Ben has been showing an interest in standing lately, but only if you pull him up. He is doing SO well, and working so hard to overcome all of his balance problems (due to lack of semi-circular canals, hearing loss and cranial nerve problems). He can lean against some things and stand for a minute without falling (he doesn't really fall, we catch him because he will drop like a bag of potatoes if we don't). This is definitely a start. YAY Ben!

Yeah Ben!

That's a pretty neat trick...keep up the great work. In my mind, I can hear you laughing while you stand.

Hugs,
Sarah, Jeremy, and Evan

Hooray for Ben! That is SO great, Amy!! I just can't get over how much Ben has grown and changed since we saw him this past summer. He has made HUGE strides! You must be so proud and happy for him.

Love,
Leslie and Katie
