I am so very very saddened to hear this news, that that joyful, precious little girl must lose her legs . My prayers will be with Samantha and the whole family, tonight and tomorrow especially.

I know these words probably sound hollow, but I do know they've made amazing advancements as far as prosthetic limbs go, though I do not know what all is involved in that. I do remember seeing people who seemed to walk just as well as you or I would. I know these types of thoughts are pitiful consolation at best right now. I just cannot imagine what you all are going through at this moment. I just can't bear to give up the hope that she will be able to still walk at some point in the future. I do think it's possible with the medical advances that have been made.
