Daniel did so good with his injection and casting! He's been doing great walking in them already. Not sure if he'll do it daily but one thing he did was ask if he could take the cast off. Otherwise, he seems to be doing good. Now to see how he does in school.

As you go to sleep tonight and wake up in the morning, please lift Daniel in your prayers. Because of his sickness in the past, it led to muscle weakness/tightness in his legs/ankles/feet. He has been in AFO ankle braces for quite sometime and now we have met with a doctor from Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation that suggested Botox followed by 4 weeks of serial casting and a new set of braces. We're in hopes this will help him. 🙏💙🙏💙🙏 thank you all in advance for your love and support.

Update!

Daniel did have his Sedated MRI this past Friday and we got this message from his neurologist:

"Daniel's MRI was reassuring. We again saw those old areas of injury related to his infection when he was a baby. They are more on the right than left, which again is a bit confusing about why his right leg is tighter and weaker, but sometimes this happens. There was nothing new in his brain or spine that would explain the toe walking. Please contact my office with any questions."

I am going to contact them to make sure we can go ahead with the Serial Casting or see if there might be another route we want to take to try and help Daniel regarding his toe walking.

Other than this, not much else going on.

Daniel's P*P contacted us recently asking if we'd be open to talking to a reporter from NBC about Daniel's story/journey since contracting Whooping Cough/Pertussis. We were connected with the Public Relations Specialist from Children's and just this morning we did a video call with the reporter from NBC. I have to say I'm not sure if this something that will be a national story and just a local story, but I will try my best to update and share.

As always, thank you for following Daniel's journey. We appreciate each and every one of you!
