  • HARDWORK gets RESULTS!!!!

    We have been doing Eli's programme for exactly 6 months today!

    6months ago Eli was completely IMMOBILE...if we laid him on the floor he could not move, he could not sit up unaided or use his right arm and he had restricted movement in the left side of his body and right leg. Eli's eyes darted around as he could not converge on objects and he sounded like Dath Vadar when he tried to breathe...Eli was not in good shape.

    We are excited to say that after just 6months of hard work, 6 volunteers each day, 7 days a week, all helping us with Eli, he can now do the following:

    Eli can commando crawl anywhere in our house, he can sit up unaided, he can move his right arm and open his wee hand, Eli can breathe a lot clearer, he has full movement in the left side of his body with a lot more movement in his right. Eli's eyes have straightened up and he has full vision in both eyes, Eli is verbalising 10 - 20 words and in the last 2 weeks has began to crawl!!!

    We know the programme we are doing with our son is working and we are off to the states in 3 weeks to have Eli assessed and to be retrained for the next 6 months of Eli's programme!

    We are very excited and have so much HOPE now for Eli's future!

    In this picture it shows Eli sitting up unaided...6 months ago Eli could not support his own weight...now look at him, AMAZING!!!

    I want to thank everyone who has made a donation so far... On Saturday we were travelling to Christchurch and I looked at all the donations and couldn't hold back the tears...it's really overwhelming to see people helping us out.

    Thankyou so much, I'm sending huge love your way! Xxx

    Ps Eli has had his first real haircut, I did it just like his Daddy's, which he loves! Wow he looks like a big boy now so I've put up a pic to share!
