The Zoo

Sarah and Caroline want their Sunday school teacher, Ms. Mary to know that they have been praying for her every single day. At every meal they pray for Ms. Mary to get better and to come back to church. So, if you happen to read this, Mary, know they truly care and always remember you in their prayers. They also wanted me to tell you that they went to the zoo this week — they wanted to tell you Sunday, but I reminded them that you wouldn’t be there. So, I told them I would post a few pictures and maybe you would see them.

Also, we are working on Sophia’s therapy schedule and what we need to do to stimulate her here at home to best help her. I will be posting on what we have learned and some of the things we need to do with her to hopefully help her to start engaging with us a little more.

Sophia’s MRI Results

Last week we got the results of Sophia’s MRI. We met with her neurologist and he showed us pictures, explained some things and gave us a DVD with over a hundred pictures of her brain. She has had a stroke at sometime in her life — probably either in utero or during her open heart surgery that she had around a year old. It was a massive stroke and did quite a bit of damage. The doctor told us that the bottom line is this: she is basically missing 50% of her brain matter on the left side. Considering the diagnosis, it is amazing to me that she is doing as well as she is. So, at this point I guess I don’t know what to expect. Only time will tell. We are getting things set up for her to start OT, PT, and speech therapy as soon as possible.
