Charlie walked independently today, hooray! He's 20 months old, and has been working on this in PT for a few months. His absent forearm & hand made pulling up more difficult, as well as making balancing harder. But his unusual tallness (35") has been almost as much of an issue...a high center of gravity, and a long way to fall, makes for a timid toddler. But we've managed to make it seem fun, with a lot of cheering and hugs and so on, and he's gradually becoming more confident. YAY WOO CHARLIE WOOO!

YAY CHARLIE!
