Bryce's balance is officially ataxia. We don't know the cause. It might be the genetic thing that's happening that they haven't figured it. Bryce struggles to walk but doesn't give up. It is heartbreaking to see him stop trying to chase the dogs b/c he just falls. He used to go get them out of their cages all the time. He stopped. He tries to play in the backyard but just falls down a lot. When we met with the neurologist, we went to a gym. He tried to hold and shoot a basketball but just kept falling down.
Brayden has some slight, noticeable balance changes. If his condition is like Bryce (and it appears to be), he too could one day struggle to walk.
So now, I have to remember to practice what I preach to the kids... Life isn't fair!
