Two more weeks of summer

Hello everyone. Just wanted everyone to know that Cameron is doing very well. I can't explain what it is like to be with her each day and discover with her something wonderful that she can now do. She gets this look of surprise and satisfaction on her face and it is a beautiful thing to watch. Her social skills continue to improve as well. It is very evident with in the way she communicates with Caroline-they are adorable together.

Cameron continues to make gains in her therapies as well. She is swimming each week with Jenny one of her PT's and for the first time in a long time she went under water and did not swallow. This sounds so simple but it is truly amazing. Before Cameron got sick she was a great little swimmer (similar to how Caroline is now for those that have seen her swim). Once the developmental delays started she couldn't seem to grasp the concept of holding her breath even though it was something she really knew how to do. Cameron was also sized for a more permenant AFO (foot brace) that will still give her support but is more flexible, we should have it in a few weeks. Once school starts our days will be very busy but Cameron should be up to it as long as she can cat nap throughout the day. During PT today Katherine her therapist was stretching Cameron while she was laying down and she fell asleep. Cameron also got a special bike this past week based on a recommendation from her therapist. It is wonderful to have this bike and Cameron loves it if we can keep Caroline off of it.

Cameron's golf tournament is now a month away and invitations will go out this week via mail and email. We will also keep you posted here on her blog. Many thanks for checking in and we will continue to update you on our many blessings. Love ya, Shelly.
