Day 14……Ms. Cranky Pants
London upset with Jason at PT
Hello All;
London was so cranky today and we feel really bad for Jason her physical therapist. She screamed her way through physical therapy as well as acupressure. She still enjoys the electric wave therapy and the machine we ordered to take home with us arrived. We plan to continue the electric wave at home.
Dr. Apple came in to see London today and put her in the dark room again and she said her eyes were responding to light and dilating a small amount. Again this is good news because at home her eyes have never dilated so it’s a step in the right direction. Friday will mark the 1/2 way point with her treatments. We will have her second of 4 lumbar stem cell transfers.
We got back into the room this afternoon from PT and acupressure and wouldn’t you know London is in a great mood to bad she was not so happy with Jason. Poor guy, she still hates being made to do anything London doesn’t want to do. She is getting better with her mobility though and is walking much better. Jessie and I have been walking her hand and hand down the hallways and in our room. You can tell when she has enough though because she screeches at the top of her lungs. We will just keep making her do it though and hope she is walking on her own before we come home.
Our friends from Ireland (Barbara and Mia) left for home today, Mia is a sweet little girl and she has also been having treatments. We wished them well and they are on their way home now. One thing, we have met a bunch of wonderful families here and it will be a joy to continue correspondence with them after they leave.
Tomorrow London has her regular 3 therapies and hopefully she will be in a better mood.
Until tomorrow from Qingdao; Ruby, Jessie and London
