This is just a quick update....
Yesterday we had our 1st Veronika Will Walk(VWW) fundraiser. We had a BBQ at K&D, after the drip pan in the BBQ caught fire and we had to empty a fire extinguisher over the BBQ, they went to find another one we had a great day. We raised $437.50, and so the fundraising has begun. I felt so humbled that my friends and family gave of their time to come cook and sell sausages, and others that came to buy a sausage or 2 or 3. Thank you again. I still don't ever know how to say THANK YOU enough.
On another note Veronika is off to see the Eye Specialist tomorrow. We haven't seen him since around the time of her 1st Birthday. When she was given the all clear, and he said "There is no reason to see him until around the time of Veronika's 3rd Birthday, as everything looks fine at this stage". To which I replied "That's the best news I have had since Veronika was born", and he just looked at me, and I said "Seriously, that IS the best news I have had since she was born". And he replied "OK". I still think it is really bizarre how some conversations I have had with Doctors I can remember them better than those I had today. So praying and crossing fingers that everything is still great. Of course I do know that there are no guarantees and this can change at anytime.....
When your baby is 1 week old, and she has her 1st MRI and the results aren’t what you thought you would ever hear, let alone something you never want to hear……Veronika has an injury to her brain from the bleed she had before she was born, and we believe that it will affect her movement down the left side of her body, and she will most likely never walk….
I guess at that point in you make a decision, one of two possible options i guess. You either think ‘oh well, if that’s how its gonna be, why bother,’ OR ‘Yes she will walk, and we will come back in when she does and say I TOLD YOU SO’.
