Since a few have asked about her. Angie is doing good a mom's house. She's been there about 2.5 months so far. We've only had to take her to ER to get a oxygen prescription so far. She's dealing with a nasty cold crud that she got from mom. Her parents bought a electric wheelchair and ramp for Angie. I bought a Astro van and a wheelchair lift for it just waiting to get it installed. Altius is making me video Angie talking as they do not believe the speech therapists reports. Bunch of BS! Sooon I will be taking a new job that has IHC insurance!! Even better is that I found out that both of her current docs (Neuro and Kidney) are on IHC coverage. Angie really needs to build her strength up for the transplant, no date yet.

Glad to hear she's doing alright. If you still need help with PT let me know.

Thank you for the update, hope things go well for you guys in the future
Yup! Before this nasty cold of hers she was able to do the whole alphabet at normal volume. Plus she can yes/no with no problems. Some words are hard. Most of the time we have her repeat words for us. She can call me dipass all day long (her favorite nickname for me). I want to get a video of her saying some things to Altius plus demostrate some finger gestures.
I think tonight her mom and I are going to let her try out the electric wheel chair outside. Hmmm her e-chair + Logans Powerwheels project.....

Stop... now... before you do something silly.
She'd have a hard time using the Echair if were lifted and on ATV treads.
(thats NOT a suggestion...)
but but a cool mini long arm kit on it would awesome! Plus a little T-max winch on the front, then a little rollcage.

I'm tempted to see if the 4 link calc I have will handle scales that small.
But I'm afraid it might encourage you.
