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!!!

Saying goodbye

Zac always wanted to play with Potato Head with this therapist. He even got a new Potato Head as a gift from her today;-)






This therapist brought interesting projects to do, such as planting flowers as they are doing here.







We are feeling a little sad today as we say goodbye to two therapist that have been with Zac most of these past 3 years. Zac will be graduating from the Early Intervention program, and moving onto the Pre-school program. We were not expecting placement in the Pre-school program as he is not developmentally delayed; however they determined that the Pre-school placement would help make transition to Kindergarten much easier, and keep him from any delays as he does not access his education the same way as a typical child.

We have been so grateful to have the therapist, they have kept Zac on track, assisted me with any questions, and provided many solutions. Zac (and all of us) would not be where he is today with out their help! They have made it seem like play, and Cai always looked forward to them coming, too; they would let him help. They have been more than therapist, but family friends! They will be missed!!!
