"Training Wheels"
David Reni has had his prosthetic legs for a couple of weeks now, and we are seeing progress nearly every day! He can zip back and forth between the support bars as shown in an earlier post, but yesterday and today he has broken free from the bars and has been successful in using a push toy to get around. This has given him more and more confidence in his prosthetics and now he "asks" to put them on!! Ellie is a proud sister and coach who's first request after getting home from Kindergarten recently has been "Can we put on Reni's legs?" Reni now knows when I am videoing him with my phone and whines to see himself when he is close enough to touch as you will see at the end of the first video below. Wish you could all see this in person, but these videos are the next best thing I guess.

Absolutely amazing, Reni!! Dad found the two videos before me and called to let me know. Meanwhile he had carried his computer all over the office, turning the Hospice staff into tearful cheer- leaders!! Yea Reni!

Well there is another relative who's bursting with joy and amazement over Reni's accomplishments!!! We're proud of you, Reni. Wish we could be at your dedication. I imagine there won't be a dry eye in the service. Give Reni and Ellie big hugs for Uncle Jack and Aunt Ruth.
