Holding Steady

Sebastian continues to show improvement. He is more alert and vocalizing more and more. The Physical Therapist got Sebastian to move his right arm above his head and then back down. He was able to eat a few spoonfuls of baby food but is still having trouble drinking thin liquids. This is one of our main concerns and obstacles. We are hoping that Sebastian's Suck/Swallow Reflex is still intact after the surgery. If he is able to eat and swallow liquids and food on his own we will be able to bring him home sooner and he will be able to continue his rehabilitation as an outpatient. If he is not able to eat and swallow on his own we will need to move him to a 24 hour rehabilitation center in Dallas so that they can work with him around the clock. We are hopeful that we will be able to come home soon. He continues to improve and even had a few converstaions with his twin sister Rachel and his Daddy.

One day at a time. One day at a time.

This is actually yesterday's post, I was just too tired to post it last night.
