I copied and pasted Jon's post from PT about Owen's progress
Hey guys and gals, I just got back from the hospital/rehab where Owen will be for the next 30-45 days.. We officially mentally have our little boy back it's now relearning all his motor skills. He is putting around in his wheel chair pretty good, wanting to race and crash. His legs are functioning but very very week he can only stand for a few seconds. All positive steps. Our neurologist team spoke with us and stated since it's such a rare disease even after he is released the want to maintain regular contact so they can study the progress...
Now as for side effects it again being so rare it's unknown he has a 80% chance of developing MS and a 30% chance of this coming back at any given time. But for now he is progressing way ahead of schedule! By the time it's all said and done he will be in the hospital for 3 months (along time) but far better then the 5-6 they had told us... Thank you all for the kind words, emails and donations it really shows how tight knit out community is
