Day 16…..Everyone is happy with London’s progress
December 24th, 2009
- Christmas Eve PT
Hello Everyone;
This morning the Dr.s came in and examined London as usual and took her into the dark room again. Little London accompanied by 2 Dr.s, Jessie and a translator went into the room for a few minutes and when they came out they told us London’s eyes are still dilating and they are happy with her progress especially after only 3 treatments. So we are happy, hopeful and waiting for our miracle stem cells to open up the world for London. I must admit tears of joy came today and it was all good!
Next on the agenda for today was physical therapy which London did better than usual and didn’t give Jason such a hard time. After PT Dr. Apple came in to tell us she had ordered London an MRI and we would be going down about 2:00PM. So we took a little walk and when we returned they gave London some medicine to make her sleep a little and off to the MRI we went. When we got down to have the MRI we had to wait for a while and the medicine wore off and she wouldn’t lay still so she was not able to have it today. They thought about doing it on the morning of Christmas day (tomorrow in China) but decided against it because she also has her 4th stem cell treatment (Lumbar) tomorrow and didn’t want to give her 2 types of medication in one day. So she will have the MRI next week which is fine because the MRI will come after another stem cell treatment. The last MRI she had was when she was less than a month old so it will be good to see what changes have gone on in her little brain and eyes.
That is about all we have to report on this Christmas Eve in China, and we hope and trust everyone will have a wonderful, beautiful Christmas filled with joy!
God Bless everyone on the Eve of Christmas and thank you all for everything you have done to give London this opportunity for site, this is the best gift we could ever imagine giving to our little girl and you all have helped to make this dream a reality.
Merry Christmas to all and to all a good night, Ruby, Jessie and London

What great news again today! It must be challenging to be so far from home this Christmas. Just keep your “eye” on the prize! London had made such progress, I am sure one day you will look back and say this was the best Christmas ever! You are in our thoughts and prayers.
Merry Christmas!
