Back to normal

It has been a while since my last update on Evelyn. She had been doing really great after her leg fractures (July-Aug). She was able to return to her normal activities gradually.

Dr Mary Peterson-Suri is one of  OI parent in the US. She had volunteerily formed a charity group called "hear-to'heart" that help in sourcing, collecting and sending special need equipment around the world. I requested a walker for Evelyn about a month ago before her leg fratures. To our surprise... the walker arrived just on time after her fracture recovery.  This walker helped Evelyn walking around the house.  A big thanks to Dr Mary and the OI Parents who have been so supportive and helpful along our OI journey. Look at her, walking with confidence!


Apart from the medical walker, we have also sourced some fun toys that helped her moving around.

She loves her stroller
There are also few toys to be acted as her mobility tools around the house.

Evelyn had progressed really well over the last few months. She was able to climb staircase

Great improvement!!!
