This is my little girls story about her fight against bacterial spinal meningitis.
Rascal Flatts - "Stand"
"You feel like a candle in a hurricane Just like a picture with a broken frame Alone and helpless like you've lost your fight But you'll be alright, you'll be alright Cause when push comes to shove You taste what you're made of You might bend, till you break Cause its all you can take On your knees you look up Decide you've had enough You get mad you get strong Wipe your hands shake it off Then you Stand, Then you stand
Life's like a novel With the end ripped out The edge of a canyon With only one way down Take what you're given before its gone Start holding on, keep holding on
Everytime you get up And back in the race One more small piece of you Starts to fall into place."

Wow it is incredible how far you have come. You are still keeping down all your food, and you are acting like my little Nessa again. You do not want to go to sleep, and you keep playing with the nurse. You had a wonderful day. Today is Father's Day, and I think it is funny that we have been here through a Mother's Day and a Father's Day. It just reminds me how lucky we are that we have you so that we can be a mom and dad on these days, and everyday. We stopped by the PICU today to say good bye to some of our favorite people, namely Andrea, or as you call her "Annie". Every one had to take two looks at you because they didn't recognize you, because you looked so good. Tomorrow they are going to take you into surgery again to get the staples removed out of your legs. They put staple in to keep the skin grafts in place. I love you so much, and I am so happy you are back to yourself, and with us again. I cannot imagine life without you in it. You enrich our lives so much, and I am a better person because of you.
Wow is right! She looks amazing! I'm so happy for you guys. Even though I know your brave journey isn't over yet, it's so good to see so much progress.
it's time to come home and we are all here to welcome you back home. what a wonderful blessing it has been to have so many people caring about you, praying for you, and being genuinely happy for your progress. we will always remember this experience and think life is good.
