Lots of good news to share...
Sadie's eyes look good!
Sadie's jaw growth looks good!!
Sadie is OUT of the wheelchair!!!
Sadie is able to do what they call "toe touch" crutches for 2 weeks (this basically means her toes in her boot can touch the ground, mostly helps balance); then she will move to flat foot some weight baring for about 2 weeks and then 2 days before we go back in July we will try to have her walk without the crutches. Once we go back they will re-take x-rays and determine if she can come out of the boot. The x rays they did on Friday were interesting... the top part of her leg is healed, you can not see the break anymore, but the bottom part is not yet healed. I asked the doctor if the visible signs would be gone when the break was healed and he said yes, so we will see what it looks like next time. On a positive note; you can see new bone growth which is confirmation her body is doing what it should be - yeah!!
Since the start of March and pretty much for about a year we have had at least one doctor appointment, physical therapy or some related type of appointment - this next week NONE! Not one single appointment for the entire week, I am so excited.
The following week Sadie will have her next Remicade infusion. That will be Tuesday the 20th.
Thank you for the continued prayers... prayers do work - God is watching and listening!
