    Yeah for Ben! I hope he'll be crusin in no time!!

    I have some questions.....I am curious as to the timeframe of when/how you decided to get one. Was it something EI recommended or your pedi? Is it an age level they hit and then need one if not walking? Or are you being proactive? Do you think it is more of a balance thing or a tone issue? I am hoping we do not have to go this route with Nate, but you never know what your gonna get with P-ACC.

    Good luck with the insurance. I would think they would cover it.....it would be counter productive for them not to....

     I first brought it up to my PT and he agreed that it would be a graet thing for Ben.  I think it is a skill level as well that they have to be able to use it correctly and he uses the jumper/exersaucer correctly so my PT is confident he will be able to "figure it out."

    Ask any/all questions.
