Anyone like an update?

since my original post, he has made crazy progress! but still not walking

they have him on paralel bars taking steps while they hold his knee's locked, he cant seem to do that himself yet.

he can now stand using paralel bars for about 8 minutes before his leggs cannot hold it anymore, doesnt sound like much but i nearly cried when i saw it!

starting to get feeling back in bladder, but no control to push anything out. he has to be cathed and he wears a diaper

Overall it has been so stressful for everyone involved, going to see him, make sure his treatment is right, handling bills.

the latest from the doctor is that he WILL walk, either with a walker or crutches. and it may be 6mo to a yaear from now before he is able to go home.

but just lately the progress has really stepped up, i think the nerve is regenerating better now.

thanks everyone.
