It has been three weeks since Isaac’s surgery and he is doing awesome!  We have been going to see his surgeon weekly and gotten X-Rays each time.  We will keep turning his distractors for another week and then the arms will be taken off.  The hardware will stay in until they do his next surgery which is scheduled for June 25th.  He did get sick this past week, but we have been staying on top of it at home.

Here is a comparison of X-Rays.  From left to right; the day after distractors were placed, 11th day of turning, and 18th day of turning.

And here is a comparison of pictures that I have taken.

Isaac doesn’t flinch when we do the turning, however, he cried two different times around the 9th and 10th day, but hasn’t since.  We spoke to his surgeon about it and she said that there were no concerns, especially since it was only a couple times.  He touched them for the first time the other day.

Isaac sees an Occupational Therapist each week in our home.  He has been doing great and improving each week.  He has been rolling over for several weeks now and he is sitting up on his own.
