Things are moving along nicely for Jordan in grade 7. He is handling his class load, maintaining steady grades and enjoying the social aspect of lunching with his friends.
Gymcats continues to build Jordan's stamina, strength and confidence......Miss Stacey busts his butt every Saturday for a jam packed hour and he steps up to her challenge wholeheartedly. :)
We have weened Jordan off his midday medication and slightly increased his morning dose to try and give a more restful night's sleep. Last weekend he mentioned feeling as though he had a dream. Very abstract story, as dreams can tend to be, so we are hopeful this may begin to occur more frequently.
Jordan's left calf is beginning to build up and we are able to feel it "fire" as he works. This is huge because after being so contracted for months, prior to the casting, it then lost any ability to activate placing all the work into the right leg.
John and I remain hopeful and Jordan remains stronger than anyone I've ever known.
October we have a follow up with Jordan's orthopedic doctor and fingers crossed we shall be done with the brace or ,at least, severely reduce the wearing time......
Stay tuned and please continue to keep him in your thoughts and prayers.
