Raul has been doing really well, lately. Being on the antibiotics has helped clear his skin a lot, so he is looking good! He has been showing off for all his therapists, and doing so well with his OT, PT, and Speech. He impresses them every week with his new skills! Raul's weight has also still been improving, and he is now over 25 pounds!! He is in the 68th percentile in weight for his height, whereas when he came he wasn't even on a chart! One problem that we are now working on is the edema in Raul's hands. It has been a chronic problem, but today at Shriner's they decided to address it. He has some temporary compression gloves right now, and then in three weeks they will make him some customized ones. They did the interim ones, because otherwise the custom ones would have been too big in a week or so when the swelling went down. So now we are trying to get the swelling down, and then the custom gloves will maintain it.
