Pediatrician 's  Response
Hi,
Thanks and welcome to HCM.
Once such movements appear that suggests he is on road to recovery.
But whether completely recovers or not it is difficult to say.
Even if he recovers still some sequelae will remain.
Hope this answer serves your purpose.
Further queries are welcome.
