Unfortunately there is no normal with this awful disease. On the upside he is young, a full recovery is possible but will take time, perhaps years. It affects people differently which is why there is not a clear pathway to full recovery. I am sharing a link to a video presentation that is very informative on where the Dr's have found ways to improve care to make full recovery possible for everyone. I am hopeful this provides you with the knowledge needed to understand what the Dr's are saying when you visit them for progress updates. I would also encourage you to ask the Dr's to prescribe water therapy for your son, I go 2 to 3 days a week and it remove sgravity, which in turn helps me to move more freely. I am also including a link to a Facebook group that is safe and helpful to chat with others who are in the same battle as you.

I see that you have already found the discussion and have met @tedjones77494 who shared some great information with you. I know this has to be hard for you also. Are you able to share some of the suggestions and information provided by @tedjones77494 with your grandson or his parents?
