Eric is doing great. He is now 5 years old. He has arthrogryposis. He attends Special Education Early Childhood to prepare him for kindergarten. He rides an adaptive tricycle. That is about all he tells me. He goes two days a week. His hands are doing very well. He can write his name and has taken up playing gameboy. As for walking he is doing very good but he does have some falls every once in a while. The only major problem is he has one leg longer than the other and that will need to be fixed. He is doing great. Rachel

Hi

I saw that your son has Arthogryposis, I'd love to talk with you further as we believe that is whats wrong with our 16mth old. He has clubbed feet, but contractures in his hands. Trying to get a dr to agree with us is hard yet his psychial therapst says it is.

Hope your little guy improves everyday :)
Take care- Crystal
