being the bad guy
Honor had to get his leg brace and his shoe insert yesterday. I bribed him with a new batman toy so he did pretty good when he was getting it fitted. (It’s actually sort of cool how it works. It’s all soft and held together with velcro. Different straps pull his leg into the right position.) With his brace and his shoe inserts his feet line up perfectly. Now we just have to get his muscles trained to do that on their own.
He got to take them off for his nap, but when we had to put them back on he totally freaked out. It made me so sad! Poor baby! I know he’ll get used to them, but I feel bad that he has to have them. It will be worth it though, he already can run without tripping.
On the bright side, Honor did get some cool new shoes out of the whole ordeal.

have you posted about his needing this leg brace before? I think I recall something, but I can’t remember. What is the problem he’s having?
Yeah, HONOR, for being such a brave boy!!!
