Update on Timmy's Arm

What a long, long journey we have had with is arm. I am very happy to let you all know that he has completed physical therapy and no longer needs to visit the Dr. YEAH! Praise God!!

He will still need to work on his exercises at home to get his hand to turn over upright. I believe the degree is now close to 70 and a normal person is at a 90. So he isn't far off any more.

The muscle at his wrist wasn't used for 3 months; therefore it has become weak and doesn't want to turn. But with his at home exercises, the Physical Therapist thinks he should be pretty close to normal in about 6 months.

Thank you everyone for all your thoughts and prayers!
