spencer took a few steps during physical therapy today. not the most graceful ones but something he is proud of. he had more speech therapy also, alot of memory stuff,i guess to try to get him to process info. tedious but necessary. He had an eye exam today,the right eye is good but left eye not so good. we are hoping his peripheral vision improves on the left side but thats a wait and see.
either he won the ward bingo game or someone smuggled contraband in. i found 3 cases of real pudding in his room. anyone willing to fess up?
i will keep you posted on anything this weekend

any steps are steps worth smiling about, even if it makes him look like he has two left feet. i think i'm gonna make a cardboard cutout of myself so all the nurses will know which blonde girl i am. =] i can't wait to come back up on sunday, i love you all. [i'll try to remember to bring some stickers]

<3 brittany.
