Isaac had a Shriner's appointment on Wednesday. You may remember this post where he had X-rays of his hips and I was suddenly hit with the reality of him developing dysplasia. It appears that with this appointment there isn't an improvement and that his hips are actually 60% dislocated. I was thankful for the nurse practitioner because she was very informative and understanding when I expressed my concerns about the pros and cons of a spica cast in the future.
On a positive note, Isaac isn't needing the oxygen during the day. I can also see the gears turning more in his sweet little head when the teacher comes over and works with him. Here he's concentrating really hard when he's taking the pegs out and putting them back in.

Isaac!You are definitely smarter than some people ever thought you would be! Keep on learning, little man, and keep the head gears turning!
Love, your Gammy
Oh yea, he's concentrating really hard. Check out that tongue!!
I love how his tongue is hanging out showing how hard he is concentrating! What a great little guy with such a supportive family!
