The worst part really is over! Today was such a good day! Dylan had physio at 9am and he just did so well, we had no tears only concentration and smiles. In today's first session Dylan was in high kneel unassisted! (Except the bench!)
At the end of the session Dylan did some assisted walking and his legs were so loose, it was absolutely amazing to see, his hamstrings are still tight but PERCS will help that and Dylan's legs will be free to build true strength. Although this surgery is regarding spasticity in the legs, Dylan's left arm has definitely improved also. Dylan's left arm is normally so tight that it's pulled right into him, look at the difference in his left arm in the pictures below..... Nothing short of amazing!! :) 
After his session Dylan didn't want to be back in bed, he just wanted to be out and about, he's such an active boy, being in bed for so long is probably driving him mad! Dylan went to see the gardens again and down to see Thomas The Tank Engine! :-)
Dylan has one more in patient physio tomorrow morning and then he is due to be discharged! As much as the hospital is great, I can't wait to get him out of there!
Deryn is loving the sibling playroom, he is absolutely wrecked everytime I pick him up, they are great in there!! He's also looking forward to having his brother out of hospital so he can help teach him how to walk :)
