Waylon is walking!!!!

I have checked into this site hundreds of times over the past year and a half. I have read many stories and made contact with many people and was helped along this journey with PFFD. I always imagined how it would feel to announce that my baby was finally able to walk, well, it is true, MY BABY IS WALKING!! Waylon had a Symes amputation in July and was fitted with an AK prosthesis in October. He has been taking stumbling steps between me and his dad for about a month but this weekend he just got the hang of it. He is now able to walk on his own. Our entire family is so proud of him and I am so relieved to be at this point, finally!!! I remember many very hard days where I did not know what we were going to decide to do and days where I was so scared of the decisions I had made. I would cross the spot in his babybook that said "first steps" and I would dream of the day I could fill this spot in. Right after my son was born and I had posted my story on this site, someone wrote to me and said "it will get easier" It is so true!! I just wanted to announce my great news and say thank you to all of the wonderful supportive people out there, and thank God for this site!! Thanks, Kathy
