Just wanted to drop by and let everyone know I haven't forgot about all you great people. Things have been hectic lately. Baby Victoria is doing pretty good these days. She has shown a little more movement in her neck. She can raise her head of her headrest but we have to be careful because it just falls forward and she can't pick it up. Sometimes we play a game with her and say "Do It! Do it" she smiles and picks her head up but you have to grab it quickly. We have to make sure to have her head strapped when we arn't around cause she will do it by herself. And we surely wouldn't want that to happen!
She is about the same everywhere else. She has alot of spasms though and they are treating those with meds. She is making more noise. She has not spoken but a few words mama and dada. She likes to hear herself though but just making alot of different noises. We are still waiting for the therapists and they are sure taking their sweet time getting the therapy going! Paperwork and more paperwork!
I just want to thank all of you again for your advice, thoughts, prayers and a shoulder to cry on during the most horrible experience my life! I truely mean it when I say the God sent Angels to help me though this and without you I don't know what I would have done.....God Bless Theresa
