Yeah Maia!

Francine: Does she suppinate straight up or does she lift the arm up and out first? Katie does up and out and is getting pretty close to her mouth--and finishes with the other hand. This has only gotten better since the splint came off so I don't know how permanent it is. But it does come closer and closer each day-remember the first night pics and I told you touched her forehead for the very first time?

I sure hope it is going to last..please please hear our prayers.

Again--hurray Maia, pick up the cheerios and plop them in your mouth girlie girl!

Spoke to Dr. Nath

well I spoke to Dr. Nath and he must have given me a good answer because the pounding in my head has stopped.

He said that she's doing it because the bone is now positioned correctly in the joint....if the bone stays in place, then this is what we hope for.

So I can relax for now because no matter how upset I get or excited I get, it is what it is, what it is, know what I mean?

She had the splint off today for 3 hours - no bath or anything and I saw her face change color - looks white now and tired, so we just put it back on. Gave her some tylenol too. Today was really good. She is SO happy again. [do you think she will sleep tonight???]

thanks for all your support,
francine
