待ちに待ったブレースが完成。 ママが型取りから色の選択まで全てやったので、実際に見たのは初めて。もっとゴツくて、ギブスのようなイメージだったけど、かなりスリムなのを見てビックリ。靴下でも履けばまったく分からない感じかな。
We've got the braces we had waited for Leo for a long long time. This is my first time to actually see them since my wife took care of everything including molding and the color choice. I was imagining somehow that they are bulky like cast, but quite surprised how slim they are. We probably don't even notice over socks.
でも正直、初めて見たときは凹みました。一年前は歩けてたのに…今は…
But honestly, I was feeling down when I first looked at them... He was able to walk a year ago, but now ... he cannot...
でも、感傷に浸ってる場合じゃない！Life goes on!だ！息子が常に前向きなのに、お前が後ろを向いててどうする？
そんな風に自分に言い聞かせました…
But I just told myself, "Hey, don't waste your time feeling down! Life goes on! And how on earth could you be feeling down and negative while your son is always positive and moving on!"
早速Leoはそれをつけて学校に。かなり調子がいいと先生にも言われたみたい。最近は、特に左足が突っ張って爪先立ち。左膝が内に入りまっすぐに出来なくなっていた。今日つけてみて、脚はまっすぐ出るし、内股の度合いもかなり軽減。何よりお尻の筋肉が少しついたような気がする。気のせいかもしれないけど、そう思いたい…
Today, Leo spent his day at school with the braces. The teachers noticed he was doing well with them. His left leg is tiptoeing recently and the knee is distorted inside and cannot stretch straight. But today, he can move legs straight and walk less wide-based. His butt muscle seem to be strengthened too, or maybe I am just wanting that to happen, I don't know.
最初は慣れなくて嫌かもしれないけど、これとウォーカーで練習して、使うべき筋肉を鍛えて。パパも一緒にがんばるから、また歩けるようにがんばろうね、Leo！
I know it is tough at first but let's get used to them, practice walking with them on the gait trainer, and train the right muscles to be used for walking! I will assist you as always, so let's go together for someday we can walk together again!
