Henry is walking

Want everyone to know that my nephew with spina bifida is now walking using a walker. And the doctors said he would never amount to anything. Thank God he had another plan for him. They are now ordering his crutches. For being only 20 months old, he is amazing considering all he has faced. But our God is great one!!! I am one smiling and happy Auntie. Also pretty proud of the work he has done. Go Henry!!!!!
