We're done with the band but we're moving onto... (drumroll please)
A TOT Collar!!!
Between exercises at home, which are awful because they cause John to scream a lot, and exercises with the PT, John has achieved a full range of motion in his neck muscles. HOWEVER, he refuses to use the range of motion so this is the next step. I've gotten the prescription from the doctor and we'll start this in the next few weeks.
John appears to not want to walk. He's very strong and has great balance, but won't stand up apart from holding onto my pants or the couch. His legs turn to Jell-O if you try to hold his hands but he can do twirls if he has one hand on a couch. I guess he doesn't have much motivation - our house is mostly carpeted and he can crawl with all sizes of toys in both hands. It is rather fun to watch because he needs to crawl so as not to get the toys stuck on top of each other.
In other news, I bought a dining room table at our local Crate and Barrel Outlet for about 70% off! We've got to figure out how to pick it up today.
