Frankie goes in for his xrays June 8th.

Time sure does fly by. Frankie goes in for his xrays next week. It's been 6 weeks.
We are so excited to see if there has been any changes. We think we are noticing things that are different. He now gets into the car with out me having to boost his butt. When he sits he no longer sits with his legs to the side he sits square on his butt. When he runs he doesn't bunny hop as much as he used too. When we go to Physical therapy and he gets his legs stretched his range of motion is alot better, and his muscles aren't tight anymore. So hopefully this is all a good sign.

He will also have another procdure done, to ramp of his stem cells that were injected into his bones. We weren't going to pay the extra money for this procedure to be done, but the lab made a mistake, and forgot to bank Frankies cells like we had paid for. So in response to this error, they have given us 3 free plasma boosting injections, and if he ever needs another stem cell transplant they will pay for the surgery. :clappurple:
We'll take that thank you very much.

Fingers crossed to good news next week, and we will keep everyone posted on the results.
