First Physical Therapy

Abby had her first physical therapy appointment with Cheryl Thames, PTA, and her assistant, Kevin today. Everything went great and Cheryl said Abby will definitely walk!!!!!!!! She will require some help (braces, etc.) but we do not know to what degree at this point. We will have two appointments per week through the end of the year and will see how she does from there. Also, we will be doing physical therapy and stretches with Abby at home every day. We continue to covet your prayers as we endeavor to do our very best for our precious little one. She has such a sweet but yet strong spirit and displays an incredible attitude in spite of the difficulties she faces. What a Blessing we were given in China! We still think of Abby's birth mother and also her foster mother and wonder how they are doing. We know their hearts are aching from the loss both of them have faced. It is sad to think that someone had to give up this beautiful baby in order for us to call her our own. We still pray that God will bless them and comfort their hearts. We hope that somehow in the deepest part of their spirits they have the assurance that Abby is being showered with love and receiving the very best medical care we have been able to find. Thank you, Lord, for our Little Blessing.




Abby meets Cheryl & Kevin and seems to be cool with the fact they are touching her and manipulating her legs.





Just being my usual little charming self!




Is this over yet??? It's my nap time!
