We had a pretty quick day at the clinic seeing only the one doctor that is going out of town next week -- Dr. Morales. He did a physical evaluation focusing on muscles and joints. He wants to continue aggressive treatment of the hip, of course, and he also wants do some electric stim and biofeedback with his upper body and arms to increase his arm movements. He made some suggestions on some ways to hold Noah that will be better for his hip, which are simple but brilliant. Then he recommended some braces on Noah's feet to help keep them straighter.
This evening, Dr. Morales will spend some time looking over his notes and coming up with a program based on Noah's needs, and tomorrow we will meet with him again to begin learning the program that he wants us to do with Noah.
Hopefully they will also get us in to see someone else so that we won't have quite so much to do next week. And maybe we can get a few pictures then as well.
