Monkey Harris – Saturday update
When little Monkey started rehab, he could not even walk. He had been “down” so long that all of the muscles along his back and both of his back legs had atrophied to the extent that he did not have the strength to rise up on them. The rehab center at Gulf Coast, started him by using this exercise ball. They slowly moved it back and forth requiring him to use his back and leg muscles to steady himself.
They also are doing a lot of range of motion and stretching exercises to further heal his leg tissue. He is one lucky little boy thanks to the surgeons and rehab people at Gulf Coast.
But, we still need to keep his rehab up. If you think you might be able to help little Monkey, and can contribute to his fund, please CLICK HERE for paypal.
