HOORAY!!!! We're walking! Yes, Dr. Rosenfeld...when she came home on Wednesday she started doing it all on her own!
You know that moment when your kids were little and you were waiting for them to take their first steps, you would watch them eagerly...camera in hand? You would hold your breath and just pray that they didn't fall? How lucky are we that we get to have this moment repeat itself throughout Bailey's life? :)
She would shoot me if I posted the video so you will just have to take my word for it...she is up on two feet! YAY! I am also impressed with how she looks when she stands on both feet...this may sound odd so allow me to explain. Prior to surgery, you could see an obvious protrusion of her hip on the left side...now, she looks to be more svelt and even on both sides.
Now, it is back to school for half days for just a bit to help her build her stamina and get back in the swing of things. She will be going to school in her wheelchair...I don't trust those lil toots not to knock her over. You would think they would be nice but apparently empathy isn't something taught in most households. Even "friends" that have spent the night, swam for endless hours, etc. are pretty mean. That's okay though...as I have told Bailey...Karma is a strict mistress!
Can't wait to see my Bay jumping in the pool and running around like a (almost) 13 yr old girl should do!
Blessings to you and yours from me and mine...!
XOXO from the Hip and Sassy Family
This is fabulous news! So glad she has the ability to overcome whatever comes her way!
