Enjoying the Summer!

Hello Everyone!  I'm so sorry we haven't posted in a while.  I guess we've been enjoying our relaxing summer.  Rena is doing really well.  She finished up physical therapy and is riding her bike around the neighborhood alot. We also managed to take her to the recent Harry Potter movie.  We just went to an early matinee in the middle of the week, when there was no one around.  I wiped the seat with bleach wipes and also covered it with a cloth to protect her.  A few preventative measures and it seemed to work out fine.

Rena just had her last appointment for this phase of her treatment and will start the next phase in a few weeks.  Only one more intense phase until she begins long-term maintenance.  If all goes well she should be back in school sometime in November.   We love you all! Thanks for the continued support.

Happy Summer!

Hi! This is rena. I'm happy to be home. It's much better to not have to eat hospital food. Thanks for the support while I was in the hospital. I dyed the tips of my hair pink, pictures will follow.

HOME!!!!!!!

We are finally home.  After almost 2 months in the hospital Rena was finally discharged this afternoon. 

Rena-Lisa Superstar!

Rena had an awesome day in physical therapy today.  She walked a few feet on her own using a walker and pushed herself in a wheel chair for quite a ways.  It was really wonderful to see.
