Norah is 2 days short of being a terrific two year old. Her walking is getting better and better and she is able to stand for more and more time. We are working on stairs and changing terrain. It's been about a month since Norah *really* started walking. She barely scoots anymore which is hard to believe. We head to Blank in one week to see Dr. Noble again. I have sighed a huge sigh of relief though I am still nervous for her. I still wonder why and of there is and underlying cause or if there will be more struggles and delays in the future. But from where we were? Yeah, so much better. On a day near the end of summer break, I pondered why Norah's improvement had stalled. Why wasn't she getting better? Was this it? I sat while she and Wes napped and I cried. No, I sobbed. It was seeming that her first steps wouldn't come this summer. I wondered why she couldn't be normal, if she'd ever walk or if she'd need braces. I looked on Pinterest for Halloween costumes that worked in a wagon or stroller. It sounds dumb but it was so she could seem normal for a holiday and we wouldn't have to answer questions from strangers about why she wasn't walking and how old she was.
It's amazing how much can change in a few weeks. I'm hoping for some good info from Dr. Noble Thursday. I've started a note of questions I have for him so I don't forget.
Here's Norah after a trip to McFarland Monday to have some blood work done for dr. Noble in prep for next week.
