Matt really starting to make some big moves now! I’m giving Matt some motivating talks in the morning and throughout the day. I know he understands me, especially now that I’m physically seeing that he responds on an EEG. It really seems like I’m getting through. Even Spencer is seeing a big change in movement. Seems we are seeing “the spark”. Matt is making some big moves and as we praise and encourage him you can see the look of satisfaction on his face as we encourage him to go. When we stopped to give him a rest to recover he decided he was ready and went again on this own. What I’m talking about is Matt pulling himself up using his core from a reclined position. I’ve tried it and it’s no simple move. We started timing him to make it more interesting and his best time was 17 seconds all the way up and forward, not bad.
