The Verdict is????

So we met with Dr. Kay yesterday morning, and we had "good" news and "bad" news. The bad news is that Isaac has no muscle movement or strength in his left foot which is causing the foot to turn out. The doc said that Isaac's left foot can't and won't get any worse then it is. BAD NEWS!

The good news is that because Isaac has no muscle in his foot there is no muscle to work with to do the corrective surgery at this time. They have seen children make progress up to 1.5 years after spinal cord damage. So we have decided to wait until this time next year before they will go in and do the surgery to correct his foot (which will be an extensive surgery!) So no surgery for now. Instead we are praying for a miracle! GOOD NEWS!

To celebrate the Good and the Bad I have put some photos of Isaac up from January! I hope you enjoy.

Isaac getting ready to get his first Manicure. He wasn't excited because he thought it was a girly thing to do.

He is so full of it. He loved it. He liked getting pampered.

"Oh No I didn't!"
All suited up and ready for a great day on the mountain.

Seriously so cute!
Taking a quick breather before they come and get him in "the Mule" a red off-road vehicle that takes him up to the top so he doesn't have to walk.
