Okay this is a brag,so fair warning to all readers,lol......
Brady is doing so well these days!! He is progressing in leaps and bounds,since hes gotten over his sickness and ear troubles. His walking is just amazing!!! He doesn't just walk,he struts. His hands are straight down by his side,his shoulders leaned back and bottom half forward and he shakes his butt,literally,when he walks,lol. He has even learned to squat down,pick something up and stand back up,all without holding onto anything or without falling,whoo hoooo!! His communication and comprehension are really coming along as well. He is learning to follow commands like turning a light on or off,but its usually after he turned it the way we didn't want it,but hey as long as he turns it back to the right position when told,lol. He is also learned to talk back,lol. When I tell him to do something,if he doesn't want to do it,he will shake his head no,hes talking back,whoo hoooo,finally,lol!!! Also his appetite seems to be coming back,there have been times this week that I couldn't feel the little piggy up :) And the best part of everything,he is playing,smiling,walking all over the place,and just back to being the sweet,mischievous little boy that he was. He is entertaining himself so much better than he was before and not nearly as clingy,except with maw maw of course,lol. He even went and got a long sleeve shirt out of his diaper bag the other night. He came over to me and started hitting my arm with it. So finally I said do you want this shirt on,and he shook his head yes. So after I put the shirt on,over his pjs,lol,he didn't even take it off,he was happy. So I guess he was just cold and wanted a sleeve on,duhhh mom!!!
Well I guess thats about it for my bragging,I could go on all night,I'm just so darn proud of him!!! Its so great to see him not sick and so happy!! OHHHH hes throwing balls at the wall now,his daddys on the other side trying to sleep,gottaaa go!!!

About Brady

Read Brady's Story Here   

I am 11yrs old and I have Angelman Syndrome. I may have this syndrome, but I dont let it hold me back. I love life and live it to the fullest every single day. My mom says that our research organization, Foundation for Angelman Syndrome Therapeutics, is working really hard on a treatment or even a cure for me and my friends. I am thankful to have 25 words but I look forward to the day that I can carry on long conversations and talk so much that everybody has to ask me to please be quiet for a few minutes :) Anyway, mom says Im awesome and super funny and I have to agree,lol.
