An update on Fabricio from Jill, who is volunteering at La Aldea Infantil:
June 10, 2012
Fabricio is 2 years old and can't sit up or stand or anything on his own. He came to the Aldea when he was 4 months old and has made a TON of progress since then. However, he still cannot sit up on his own or support himself yet. He attends physical therapy so he can learn how to do so, and this week I got to take Fabricio to Trujillo for his physical therapy. He has an appointment twice a week, which is good because it gets him moving and stretched out. During therapy, the therapist showed me the routine and taught me how to work with Fabricio, so we (at the Aldea) can start helping him learn to sit up on his own. He still can't hold himself up yet without help for longer than a few seconds, but he is making progress! We are going to start working with him every day so he can progress more quickly!
