Baby steps

We are seeing some tiny improvements. I found a little yellow wheelchair in the lobby of the hospital that I snatched and she went for a ride. PT came and made her walk several steps, which she sobbed all the way through and needed rescue meds when that was all over. But it is some baby steps. Staying another night in hospital and trying to change flights and logistics of how we are going to get home. 

She'll probably kill me one day for this pic but her eyes have really been itchy and bothersome so she has had ice cold wash clothes on her eyes much of the time and this is the first time she's had a shirt on the whole time. Along with several heating pads, her nurse and I joked that she looked like she's having a day at the spa.

Emily, our Samford nurse is back today. This is such a divine intervention and small world. Her best friend was one of our babysitters and she grew up going to The same church in Atlanta that my sister and her family go to. Been so wonderful to have her taking care of MG. 

This pain reminds me of the hip pain after getting her cast off, which of course we never wanted to go back to. She has been through so much pain in her little life and yet once she gets through it, on the other side she is full of joy. 

Thanks for your continued prayers.

"So also you have sorrow now, but I will see you again, and your hearts will rejoice, and no one will take your joy from you." John 22:16
