The other day, Karter's physiotherapist brought by a "stander" for Karter. This is a piece of equipment used for children who are unable stand on their own or, in Karter's case, need to build the muscles up in their legs so that they can stand on their own.
I have to admit, when Sandy (the Physiotherapist) rolled it through the door, I was a bit shocked. On its own, it looks like a small torture chamber. But after adjusting it to fit Karter, it works wonderfully and he LOVES it!
The other day he spent 40 minutes playing happily in it. I think he likes that he can be at everyone's level and see eye to eye with them. It has a tray on it so he can play while he is in it. I included some pictures so you could see it. It really is a eyesore but it works amazing and hopefully it will help him build up strength in his legs.

That's awesome! That's exactly what Karter needs a little helping hand to strengthen his legs. Modern technology is a wonderful thing! He'll be running a marathom before you know it.
