Birds Of A Feather

Today was beautiful day in San Francisco and the Blue Angels put on another show. Carly continues to do well, spending much of the day playing with her favorite stuffed animals. She even used her new tooth to chew on Big Bird's hand for awhile. Maybe she won't be a vegetarian?

Carly had two blood draws today which is never her favorite but she calms down pretty quickly afterward. I gave Carly a shot for the first time, something Christa and I will have to do once a day when we get home. It is now looking like Tuesday may be that day, but we know better than to plan on it. The most important thing to us is that she continues to get one step closer to a completely healthy brain.

Love, Brad

Brad, Christa,
Thanks for sharing your experience with us. Good to see the progress that Carly is making. She obviously gets that strength from the love she receives. Hope to meet all of you one of these days.
