Corwin had an appointment with his general paediatrician yesterday to check on his general health and development - just one of the four clinics Corwin is under! The Doctor basically oversees all of Corwin's treatment for everything. His cardiologist only really looks at his heart whereas his paediatrician looks at 'Corwin'. He seemed pleased that Corwin is making steady progress in all areas and listed all the 'help' Corwin is having - Physio Therapy, Speech and Language Therapy and a Special Needs Teacher from the Early Years team who spends over an hour a week with Corwin at home. It would be so difficult for me to go to back to work with all the appointments we have! Corwin is still not walking , now 2 years 4 months (see chart at the bottom of this page!) but is using his walking frame with ease. He is not saying any words but plenty of sounds and is definitely communicating but in his own little language with a lovely little sense of humour! We like to look at what he can do rather than cant. He weighs about 28lb / 13kg and is 82 cm tall.
His little brother Rowan is growing fast and Corwin showers him with kisses and gives toys to him - he is a very caring, affectionate big brother.
I just love the photo of them above. They both look so cute ready for bed. Corwin looks young for his age so it is hard to believe there is two years between them from this photo!
