I know some of you are still checking for updates regularly, but the progress isn't so dramatic anymore so it's hard to come up with something every week. I will continue to update though when there is anything new, so please don't give up checking!
Leanne went back to the hospital after being home for 10 days. What a nice break! Not that we saw much of her because she went to Strings Camp everyday just to observe and hang out. But she was still home part of each day and things felt rather normal. And she enjoyed Camp enormously even though she couldn't play. She's counting on joining in properly next year!
For the next two weeks her therapists are planning to strap her left (good)hand in a splint for 4 hours a day to try force her right hand to do more. That should be interesting as she really depends on that left hand. But she's game, since it's supposed to help her. God has given her a lot of patience, which we're very thankful for.
We need to combine her strong determination with our humble prayers, which God delights in. And God hears our prayers, as is evidenced by Leanne's amazing improvements. There's no reason to think He won't hear our prayers that she will be a participant in String Camp next year. All the best, Leanne!
ReplyDeleteI totally agree with Thea! We think of you regularly and pray that healing will continue.

What fun about visiting String Camp! Glad to hear things are going so well. Not to minimize the challenges, but thankful for the good. May God continue to extend his blessing to you all.

Now is the time to work hard with the right arm while you are still in therapy to get maximum benefit from it. We will pray that next year you can get back to normal to participate fully in string camp. God bless your efforts Leanne.
