Still Here

Wow its been a while since I remembered to get on here and update everyone on Sam's progress.  Sam is still busy with her therapy. She continues with Neuroworx three days a week and one day in Nephi for hand therapy. Sam is taking a full load from USU online and is loving it. We are currently trying to get her a baclofen pump for her spasms. My insurance is making us jump through a bunch of hoops but in the end I feel it will happen.  This pump goes under the skin and a catheter goes into the epidural space in the spinal cord. It can be programmed to administer different doses of baclofen at different times. The pump is filled when necessary by a needle through the skin. Sam gets frustrated with her spasms and this will be a life changer we hope. Sam just turned 20! These kids are getting old! Glad I'm staying the same. Easter was great. We were out in the desert again. Family time is always a good time. We are still hanging on and continue to appreciate all the prayers that come our way. Thanks for visiting us and keeping us in your thoughts. Love to all.
