Current status

Thanks for stopping by! Our little trooper is doing well. He is now walking with out assistance (short distances), nearly running and dancing. It truly is amazing, and it still takes my breath away when I see him on his feet!

Zac's platelet levels have remained at a safe level (about 1/4 of the average child) since he was 3 1/2 months old!

Cai is the protective, helpful older brother...with the exception of those "normal" brotherly love moments;-)

All in all we are doing well, just dealing primarily with "normal" life challenges. We are so pleased to have gone through the past few years to be where we are now. It truly has been the best of times -the worst of times. We thank God, and our friends and family and all of you who have given in so many ways to help us through, we are so grateful!!!

E-mail update 4/24

We are returning to Baltimore for Zac's follow-up from the Fixator removal. He has worn the Spica cast for nearly a month; but the brace was fitted on Wed., which he is now wearing full time. It was a huge relief to get the brace as now Zac can sit and scoot again. I am so glad to have that past us, it was a real challenge!This trip to Baltimore came a little sooner than expected as we thought it would be another week to two. We learned just this week that Dr. Paley will not be in Baltimore through the end of May, but that his last day is on Tues. 4/28. Our choice is to go this Monday or wait until he is in FL. in June. Zac can not wait another month to resume Physical Therapy, so we have no choice but to get there on Monday. Thankfully the brace was able to be rushed and done this week.We have good news on Zac's Power Chair and expect it to be in next week. Hold on everyone...Zac loves to do things "super fast" and "go" "go" should be fun!!-)We are thanking God for His grace and providing all of this to be possible and to be at the end of the process for the left leg!

Thank you all,James, LeAnn, Cai, and Zac
