"We did it. We got it and All is well" (Spinal Muscular Atrophy Type 1)



Lizzy got her H1N1 shot today. I gave her some infant Motrin before we left and the so far she is fine. Its was uneventful for a change.  The nurse came out to the van and gave her the shot so we did not have to go through what we did last week. The nurse told us Lizzy has to have a booster Nov.18. With all the H1N1 all over the place it was what we had to do. I was so much against the shot but... after researching and talking to health care professional I think we made the best choice for us.
I will keep every-one updated on side effects but so far thank goodness all is well.
 Elizabeth at this very moment is playing on her pc a game that is a teaching game and so far she likes it.

Prayers to all the sick kids and those dealing with a new diagnosis. Please do not give up. You need to find hope. "Hope" is what has kept us fighting for Lizzy.  Pray and Thank God for  your gifts. Lizzy is my gift.
 I whisper in Lizzy's ear every night right after she falls asleep since she was an infant " You can do any thing. Some way some how" She does too....
