Rehab Take 2

Last night was rough for Georgia. She did not sleep that well and was up every hour or so. I think she is scared of the dark now that she is more aware of things. I would reassure her and then she would go back to sleep. Today Georgia was evaluated by all the therapists and they will write up their plans as well as the goals I would like to meet before we go home. We start "boot camp" which is several therapy sessions throughout the day. Hoping that tomorrow will be a better day. Today was really hard on me. When Georgia is down I am down. And boy was she down, she was fussy all day. I think she might be experiencing stranger anxiety and with all the new faces she is scared. I think to myself is the three years of constant seizures has damaged her brain, and while I once had a healthy happy child has been replaced with a shell. I see these happy children full of life and so excited for new things and I do not yet see these things in Georgia. Please pray for me. On a better note, Georgia did laugh when we were snuggling at bedtime and it lift my spirits. She also was able to pull herself from laying down to sitting up with no assistance. She also moved her entire leg when I tickled her under the knee. She also loves going outside and sitting by the lake.

  1. Misty- your strength is amazing. Georgia is so lucky to have you for her mom. God knew that you were the right person to care for such a special child so he placed her in your care to walk the path of healing with her. Christy and I can't wait to visit this weekend.

  2. Misty, you are an amazing young woman and an awesome mother. You are however, human. Humans feel fear, we question God and we get angry. God expects all of that and understands it. Be honest with Him, yell if you must. He can take it. He is right there with you ever step of the way. When you feel He is being silent, just remember all good teachers are silent during a test. We are praying for you and sweet Georgia every day.
