Please Be Seated...DMO Suit Has Arrived

It's been a bit painful.  We had a fitting in the beginning of June for a dynamic full body suit and glove.  We are hopeful this will resolve the muscle memory issues with Lewis, increase his trunk control and help him learn the correct body alignment he needs to master day-to-day tasks like independent sitting and grasping toys thereby avoiding another round of botox injections.  Nascott is the only one who does this sort of thing from the UK in this area.  They are supposed to call you once the measurements are submitted to the UK and your suit is fabricated and then shipped here.  Only, I had to call them at least twice a month since the initial fitting and measurements to stay on top of it.  The suit and glove finally arrived and we picked it up at Hospital for Sick Children this past Friday.  LJ looks like a super hero.  I don't exactly feel like one.  It has taken me a minimum of 30 minutes just to get the glove on his weaker, right hand let alone the body suit.  The suit has panels in it which cue the correct muscle groups to engage when its time to work and helps the other ones to relax!  It's hard core no pun intended! We'll get the hang of it.  Here's the superhero himself donning the new garb (which he wears now all day under his civilian clothes...except when he sleeps): 

For all you ladies out there who are willing to wait 4 months for compression hose, it's like Spanx for the body on crack!
