Mackenzie's Spastic Cerebral Palsy
Getting Beike's Stem Cell Treatments at Qingdao Chengyang People's Hospital
Most Recent Posts
- Mackenzie received her last spinal today. Tomorrow and Sunday are free days for us, which means no therapy, no doctor visits, and no tests. Well except having blood work done again. Which will be 8:30am. Her eeg showed epilepsy but the neurologist examined her and said the medication would do more harm than her seizures because they don't seem to be effecting her. We are leaving Tues at 4pm and will arrive home wed morning. Going to start hyperbaric oxygen therapy once we get home to help the stem cells multiply, then start looking for a new neurologist. Plan on having lunch with my baby boy whom I miss dearly. Then just relaxing for the rest of the week. therapies start back up the following week. We plan on going to the beach this weekend. just to get out and try to enjoy the day a little bit. The days have been long and I'm definitely ready to get home.Mackenzie's appetite seems to have doubled if not tripled. Sorry for being all over the place with this post. I am tired and trying to fit everything in one post. She actually pulled herself up today in therapy (situps). She's been letting the physical therapist do it for her. Thank you everyone for the prayers they are much needed and much appreciated. I hope all her therapist and her chiropractor will be ready for her starting November 2nd. She's even more vocal and more demanding. What's kind of funny is when we get close to the physical therapy room doors Mackenzie starts fussing. I think she's had enough. When we ask if she's ready to go home and see Brandon her eyes light up and start looking around.
- Mackenzie had an eeg this morning and will have her 3rd spinal today at 3pm. Going to be a long night.
- Since Mackenzie's iv treatment her tone in her arms and legs have decreased and she is tracking the flashlight side to side. Also her newest word is mamaw.

That is great results after just one treatment. Think about you guys often and can’t wait to see you. I look forward to more information after her lumbar treatment.
