Wyatt was born on May 9, 2002 after a very difficult delivery. Within the first 24 hours of his life, he coded and had to be air-lifted to the NICU in Sioux Falls, SD. I was unable to accompany him. That was the one of the worst days of my life not being able to be with him. But, if he wouldn't have gone, he may not be with us today. Since then, Wyatt has had an amazing will to overcome soo many hurdles. He continues to inspire people everyday with the twinkle in his eye and infectious smile.
Our wish for Wyatt is to keep that strength and to continue building on it throughout his life.

Day Three . . . .

We started the day off with breakfast on the terrace of our hotel - the boys took the opportunity to kick back and relax!
Today we had therapy services and it went very well. The doctor told Wyatt that he "was brilliant"! They video taped him on a treadmill and was able to mark his steps, stride and gait - very interesting to see. The therapists would like us to come back for a very intensive 2-week therapy session to focus on his speech and balance. I will have to discuss this with Danny once we get back and also talk about a third treatment if we see some positive results from the second.





After that we decided to go and tour the Benrath Palace, which was about a 20-minute train ride. The palace was amazing and we had a nice quiet, leisure afternoon. Once we were done there, we went back to our hotel and ate at a nearby Greek restuarant. The food was very good. We were all ready to make it a short evening and get some rest before Wyatt's big day tomorrow.
