Carsyn Turns 23 Months

Filed Under: Family Tagged With: carsyn

It is crazy that in less then a month I will have a 2 year old. After that I will probably only do these types of post every 3-6 months.  Him being immobile sure helps me get these photos. I long for the day when he will run away from me so I won’t take his photos.

I kind of gave an update on him last week after his doctors appointment. Nothing much new going on this month. He has been on the medicine for 1 week and I am already starting to see little differences. The doctor said three weeks, but I have noticed his muscle are more relaxed and not as tight. His physical therapist noticed it too. Praying that we continue to see improvements and that we find the right dose.
