We go to Camp Runamuk on Friday! Yeah! On Saturday Hope will be doing the zipline and then headed to the Prescott Zoo. not exactly sure what is there but should be fun. Sunday she will do some hippotherapy. Carol, one of our Habilitation workers is going up with us. She will be in charge of Hope for parts of the day so I can have some free time. What's that? I hope to enjoy some much needed time away!
We went to Dr Shafron's today. Her wound was draining A LOT over the weekend. He figures it was probably just a pocket of fluid. It has pretty much stopped now. He burned away some of the extra tissue to help it heal faster. It's getting there. We are 3 months in. I think she missed any chance at water play this year though.
She starts counseling in 2 weeks to help get coping skills for all that she has been through. I am hoping it will be a good thing for her. Since she has been approved for Make A Wish she has gotten some of her drive and ambition back. Not completely there yet though.
She has decided to do ambulatory track this year! Just bought a cool tripod walker for her. It's a little big but she will probably be close to grown into it by the time we start. Soon we will start training for track.
She is mid growth spurt right now and having a hard time walking. She is so tight she sleeps on her belly at night and her heel touch her butt. We met Dr Raben today. He is a mobility specialist and Dr Shafron referred us to him. Dr Shafron is hoping maybe he missed something and Dr Raben will have some tricks up his sleeve to help her walk better. We'll see.
I can't post the family portrait on here since my foster kiddos are in it. This is one of Hope and I though. We are a pirate family for Halloween. The girls start visits with their mom again this week. Not looking forward to it. Hopefully it will go better than anticipated.
Hope all is well with everyone. Thank you for your continued support!
