Today Spencer did his usual walking plus he tried kneeling for the first time. They had him do this using a ball to balance to himself. The therapists really gave him a good workout because he was exhausted. I know that they see how much he wants to get better,so they push him to the max.
Although he hasn't started with her yet, his tutor came in today to talk to him. From what i am told i am not sure which one would be the tutor and which one would be the student. As i said before, previously she was a Latin teacher and was looking forward to tutoring this with Spence. I guess she saw the material they are covering in AP Latin and now is not so sure. His AP calc. and programming she said forget about it. (Mrs Chaves and Mrs DeSousa you may be earning frequent traveler miles to Boston....lol).
thank you to all

so spence, you gotta thank your uncle ted for the compliment for me, i just read his comment on the last post. we might need to send him up there for a little PT and give him some walking 101 lessons if he's falling down the stairs though. ;P

keep up the incredible work, you have no idea how proud i am of you! stay strong. once you're able to walk on your own, i think i'm gonna give you a few dancing lessons before prom, just to freshen your memory. ;D

love you!

Spence-

Remember a Nuttall kneels for no man. Glad you got another room now I can bring all my Crip friends to visit. Anyway, frankly, this whole AP Latin thing sound made up. It's a dead language. How much learning is there to do? It's not like they're making up new words.Is there a Latin word for blog? Blogum?
Have a good weekend

Uncle Ted

I love that you're working so hard and are so determined to get better. It seems like there are so many people who wouldn't do that. You are absolutely inspiring.
And from what I can gather, it doesn't seem like you'll have a problem with Latin and Calc anyway!
