Becca had a great day! She stood for the first time today. It was assisted, but she was able to stand on her legs. She couldn’t really feel her legs as they were in ‘space,’ but her body supported her.

She was also able to sit today for 90 minutes!

Becca also had her stitches removed from her lower back today. It’s been a busy day. We also found out that until she can sit for the duration of the flight, we can’t use Angel Flight. We need an aircraft that will accommodate her lying down. Angel Flight can only fly those that can sit in a chair. The doctors said her organs (lungs, heart, etc) are capable for flight so they will clear her. So, if anyone out there has a contact that could help, let me know. We are planning for now to continue therapy here, perhaps even start the treatment, then move her when she can sit for a long period of time. I know there is an air ambulance type system, but it’s a bit more that we would ever look at based on her need, which is not critical believe it or not 🙂

We are going to continue to work her, but that’s nothing new to Becca. She is a determined girl, so look out!

Thank you all again for your kind words and encouragement. We love you all and can still feel your strength. There is no way we could do this alone 🙂
