Dominic did great today! We had a little glitch with our ride to the clinic; they were an hour late (and they were for everyone else as well). They are little more relaxed about scheduling than back at home. I think all the moms today will need big drinks tonight.
Dominic had over 11,000,000 cells; the average is 3,000,000. They used some extra to inject directly into his wrist and thigh muscles. The doctors have found that it will relax the muscles. The doctors started the procedure at about 12:30 and Dominic was done by 12:50. He then rested at the clinic until 4:00. He ate and is already asking for dinner now. Steve is going to our favorite place around the corner for burgers again. The Spiers know what we're talking about.
Dominic says his back is a little sore and he might have some soreness in his wrists and thighs as well. He is trying to grab for things and is convinced he needs to start using all his body parts. We are trying to convince him that he needs to rest today.
We were at the clinic today with families from Florida and Wisconsin. We will keep in touch with them to track progress. The little boy from Wisconsin has CP as well and the little girl from Florida had a bad reaction to medication when she was one and has been completely developmentally delayed since. Let's keep them in our thoughts and prayers as well.
We will keep everyone posted in the coming days. I turned on the data on my phone so we can answer e-mails for the rest of our trip. We love you all!!!
