Well, it has definitely been too long since I last blogged...but to be honest...there really has not been a lot to write about recently.
Everything has been status quo with the challenges of giving the injections but this past Saturday we had a breakthrough. Cannon walked right up to me and willingly gave me his arm and didn't complain, cry or fight me. It was shocking for me to say the least as he literally changed overnight. He didn't complain during the shot or after either. He was such a champ.
Additionally, we went for our first bike ride of the year on Saturday as the weather finally allowed us to. I noticed that I needed to raise the seat for Cannon and potentially even move to his bigger bike...he has definitely grown taller in the past 6 months! I also noticed that he was able to pedal up a slight incline from a stand still position all by himself. He couldn't even think about doing this 6 months ago...not to mention this was done while seated on the bike without standing up as he is not able to do this yet.
So we are hitting 6 weeks on the medication this week and Cannon and Deb go to Pittsburgh next Monday...the 11th. We will have much more to report then I am sure...but this is it for now.
The last thing I will say is that Cannon's confidence seems to be increasing. He is doing more and more rough boy stuff like playing in the mudd, playing lacrosse and rough-housing with his brother Clark. It is really fun to see.
Great to heat all these positive developments!
