Steffan is now walking unassisted!
Steffan is now walking unassisted! Yesterday, his Physical Therapist had Steffan attempt walking unassisted for the 1st time. And Steffan nailed it! Roxette was playing in the background too, which felt right. He's eating 3 meals a day now, his tube feed has been stopped, and his PEG comes out next week. On Thursday, Steffan finally got to meet his neurosurgeon Dr. Abla and nurse practitioner Marlene Burt. It was a very emotional meeting, especially for Brandon. Dr. Abla and Marlene were both amazed at how well Steffan is doing only 3 months out. Dr. Abla also admitted he didn't think Steffan was going to make it, which was very sobering to hear as Steffan put it. His anticipated release date from rehab is 9/27. He's very much looking forward to sleeping in his own bed and getting to sit outside on the deck.
