Thankful Thursday: Maggie's gait trainer

Back in July I went to a CRS clinic and got prescriptions for Maggie's AFO's and a gait trainer. She was fitted for the AFO's almost immediately but the trainer finally came in last week! And it's pink! Yes, Maggie picked out the color. She was used to the trainer we had on loan and was getting really good in it, so we're going through a little re-adjustment period, but she's doing well and will only get better. I don't even have to set aside time to "work" or "do therapy" 'cause she asks to walk all the time!! She loves it and is getting in lots of practice. Hopefully she'll get real strong real fast and can move into a walker. We're so proud of our beautiful Maggie girl!!!

One of the parts we ordered is a guide bar so that I can help her if she needs it.

I'm having Will hold it here so I can take a picture

visiting with baby brother. She loves the freedom of walking

I'm so thankful for the opportunity to get Maggie the equipment she needs to be more independent all while strengthening her and improving her gait. I'm grateful to have access to state funded services that provided her with the trainer- and we were able to go through a catalog and pick everything we need! And of course I'm thankful for my sweetheart girl and her determined spirit. :)
