Successful Day 3 of Physical Therapy

Parker was a walking stud muffin today!  He started off the morning without fussing about wearing his leg and was ready to walk.  He showed his doctor and a room full of other doctors and students how great he could walk and enjoyed all of the attention.  We worked on how to get up from the floor with his leg and how to bend down and pick things up from the floor.  Our physical therapist said most of those skills he will learn and perfect once he is wearing his leg more often.  Here is a video of him walking to return his leg to the prosthetic department (about a 10 minute walk).



So today we returned his temporary leg and we go back to pick up his new leg on Monday the 29th, we can't wait!
