School Here We Come





I happy to announce that Abby is back in school. After being home for a month, she is now strong enough to return to school. Besides, being a little nervous, Abby was actually excited to go back. Her class greeted her with hugs and excitement and 3 welcome back banners. One of the ladies from Cooks Children's Hospital came down to speak to her class. She talked about what Kidneys are how they work and what happens when they don't work, dialysis and Kidney transplants, seizures she covered all of it for them. She answered all their questions so Abby wouldn't be bombarded with questions her first day back. It really helped her feel at ease. Abby had a great first day back in school. She said everyone played with her at recess and she felt good. How amazing is that. When I first started this blog weren't sure when she could get out of ICU now she in school!


Abby is officially 9. She had a grease theme party. She was a pink Lady of course. She had a nice party with family and friends. She got a lot of gifts and her favorite gift was a Beta Fish that she loves. She is so on top of her game with her fish. She has been making home videos of herself being silly. I posted one to show you how funny she is and so you could how amazing she is.


Her health is getting stable, she goes this week overnight to the hospital for IV Medicine, then can return home the next day. We will being a specialist soon to help with her blood disorder and hopefully get on our way to a transplant.


Thanks for walking with Abby! her walk is getting better and better..
