project walk day 3



Today was day 3 at Project Walk. It was a good day. Tyler did a lot of standing exercises and worked on the Total Gym. He went on the Gait Trainer (For those who don't know, the gait trainer is a harness device used to hold a person over a walker or an elliptical machine. This mimics walking and the stride over and over has proven to improve connection to the legs from the brain.) and took some steps on the tread mill. He also used a new machine that mimicked crawling but vertical. After Therapy Tyler went on the FES bike( Bike that uses electrical stimulation to help to pedal the bike.) He was pretty tired. After therapy Tyler, Tammie and Aunt Maureen went to the San Diego Wild Life Reserve. We saw animals up close from a Guided Safari tour. It was amazing. We saw Rinos and Giraffs up close. After that we went to the beach to see the sunset. More to come tomorrow.

Tyler,

Good pictures. It looks like you are doing a lot of new stuff this week. I hope they get you into the walker a few more times this week.
