We had a fantastic weekend with James.  All his sleep over passes went great.  We decided on Saturday to see if we could transfer him into the truck.  I got him standing by the passenger seat and had just commented that we wouldnt be able to get him in because the seat was too high.  Next thing I know he is in the truck trying to close the door!  He came for a drive and went to Walmart   with us!  The smile on his face did not fade for the hour that we were out!  We went for another drive on Sunday.
James started a group hand class this week.  It is his favourite therapy!   Although when I asked in front of his occupational therapist,  he told her that OT is his favourite and that she is his favourite therapist!  What a teacher's pet! 
He has some more physio time added to his scheduel now too.  They work on walking with the walker in his morning session and balance in the parellel bars in the afternoon.  He is doing great!  His movements and reactions are still quite slow,  but I am seeing a difference in the speed of his movements.  His balance is definetely getting better too. 
He restarted speech and language therapy too.  He seems to be enjoying those sessions too. 
Next week there will be a therapy assistant working with him in the mornings to help him become more independent with self care.  He is already brushing his own teeth and washing his own  hands.  He is starting to help with dressing as well!
He is now spending weekend passes with me and in two weeks we are planning a weekend pass home!  His next rehab review date is September 12th and hopefully we will have a clearer picture of when discharge will be at that point.  I am not in a rush though!  Outpatient rehab is pretty much nonexsistant in the valley,  so the more we can utilize here the better.
