Last Post Before We Leave

Well, there seem to be no lasting effects from the head injury. I am going to try to get in with the pediatrician this week before we leave for China. I have been putting off the pediatrician visit until after her birthday, (which was just a little over a week ago). She had so much anxiety over going for her well check, I promised it would be after her birthday. Time has slipped away like it usually does. We will be gone until the end of the month, and this trip will be quite a challenge. We will be staying at a remote orphanage in a small village. It will be tough, but we will all come back better people after all this is over. If you had told me my life would take this turn 5 years ago I would have told you that you were crazy. As hard as my daughter's challenges have been, it has opened up my world. I have met so many wonderful people and special kids through it all. I hope we can continue to have others benefit from our trials. It makes it all worth it in the end.
