Sept 25 - Shriners orthodics

We got new splints and shoes. So far she is doing great with them. While Adi was getting fitted for her splints there was a girl in a room across the hall from us, about 8 years old, getting fitted for her prostetic leg. The girl was so excited to be able to walk in her new leg that without knowing it she gave me a much needed lesson on gratitude.
Being at Primary Children's Hospital and at Shriners so many times this last year has made me more aware of how special and strong children are that have special disabilities and medical challenges. I can't help but be humbled by the knowledge that such a special little girl came to our little family.
