7/19/20 She's a gift!

So excited to tell you all that my brother Eric and his family are all feeling well and recovering from Covid 19! Thank you so much for keeping them in your prayers! Thanks to God for their health! 

We have a couple appointments coming up this week for Annelise.  We decided to go forward and start the serial casting to hopefully correct her clubbed feet.  She will have casts on her ankles full time for 6 weeks.  Sad to do it, but will be happy to have it done!
Few kids with Trisomy 18 can walk unassisted.  Annelise also has Spina Bifida, so that makes it even less likely that she will be able to walk. I've used this as reason to consider not casting her feet at all... but that would mean that she for sure would never bear weight on her legs. Even if we only ever get to the level of working to put her body weight on her legs.... we will have fun while doing it, and that will make it a great experience.  She is already amazing.  Every day is a gift ❤
