Further Accomplishments
I am so behind once again on updating what little miss Ella has been up to! With the holiday season in full swing baking, shopping and wrapping gifts has consumed me:) We know it will be an awesome Christmas as we just are so happy with what Ella’s outcome from the stem cell tratment has been. We rejoice each day that the treatment was a success and that her and her wonderful daddy made it back home safe and sound to us. That is the best Christmas gift any of us could receive.
Ella’s new goal in therapy ( the goals are coming quickly as she keeps reaching them right away) was to stand up by the matted table that Andy works with her on using her hands to feel the support but to eventually learn it was OK to do this on her own and not need one of us behind her supporting her pelvis. Well she DID it!!! I have some great photos which I sent out to the stem cell family and by the way you guys made me cry by all of the wonderful and supportive emails you sent in response. (By the way…..is anyone thinking towards summer for a reunion????) Ella got very brave and took one hand off the sofa to play with a toy the other day so this is wonderful news. Her balance and strength is incredible, she wants to move all of the time. She is still rolling over all day long and making her walker go. She is very happy!!
We look forward to updating with more good news. Thank you for checking in on us, we love hearing from all of you and feel thankful to have each of you in our lives.
