June 11

Garrett is doing fabulous!! Today his physical therapist got him in a contraption that helped him stand and he was able to practice walking! It is the first time since his accident in February. I was impressed with how he worked so hard to try to move his feet forward. It was incredible and I am so proud of him! It has been a great week. He has been using his voice a lot more and it is prolonged as well. Yesterday he worked on catching and throwing balls. This evening before I left I was told he is likely to receive a trax pass and we will be able to take him out for a while! Yay Garrett!!

  2. Hooray! We love that he is continuing to improve. We've been to the temple a couple of times in the last few days. Each time he is on our minds and we add him to the prayer roll. Then we talk with others we are with and they too have done the same thing. I'm always excited to see with prayer and faith miracles continue for Garrett and your family.
