Today Mike had a chance to jog on a treadmill for the first time during his morning therapy session. Mike was asked to try and go 30 seconds. But, always the overachiever, he managed to jog for 45 seconds three times. Mike was also put on a stationary bike today. I’m sure you all know where this is going… He happily showed off his skills doing no footers and other tricks for those watching. Mike’s fine motor skills are coming along nicely too. Mike was even able to tie his own shoes this morning!
It’s been amazing to watch how quickly Mike is progressing. Even his therapists and doctors have been astonished at his recovery. One therapist even joked that she was running out of things to have him try, since she’s never had a patient recover this well before.
