Erb's Palsy Report

Something that I haven't blogged much about is Erb's Palsy. I think this is because when I look at my baby I don't see his injury all of the time anymore. That doesn't mean it doesn't affect our lives every day. How so? At least two or three times a day, we must complete range of motion exercises on little man's arm. He doesn't mind them, but sometimes he loses a bit of patience. We also have to restrain his left arm (his good arm) while we work with his right arm so that he is less likely to compensate with that arm.

On July 9th, we have an MRI. I'm nervous for two reasons:

1. I worry about having him sedated. I know that seems silly, but I just don't know. It makes me nervous.
2. Of course I also am scared of what they may find. What if he does need surgery?

I have to remind myself every second of every minute of every day to LET GO and LET GOD. We see improvement every day. He's even started to use his biceps a bit. It's amazing and I'm so proud of him and so thankful to God for how He's helped Nathanial grow strong.

Please keep us in your prayers and I'll keep you posted!
