tuesday evening

it's been awhile since i've posted an update. i meant to write earlier, but didn't really use the computer much during the holidays. we had a great christmas and new year's! lots of family, friends and food! a little while before christmas, i made a number of improvements. in speech, i figured out how to say s, although it takes so much air that i can't do it all the time. in ot, i had a goal to sign all my christmas cards and i met my goal. josh still had to help me move my hand out though. if he doesn't, i end up writing g-e-n right on top of each other! in pt,i had the most exciting progress! we've been doing the lightgait, a thing that lifts my body weight off my feet by lifting me with a harness. we've been doing it on a treadmill, they've been moving my legs for me for about 5 minutes, then letting me try on my own. i have actually been advancing my legs on my own for 5 or 6 steps! we're hoping that eventually i will be strong enough to do that supporting my own weight. it sure does give me hope to see all this progress!
