From the Hospital CarePage ...

This is Johanna,
just to let everyone know I did post some new pictures of Sam.

The difference in Sam from those early weeks in the hospital-
from the physical to the emotional- hopefully comes through in the photographs.

Even though she was a bit sleepy when I visited this morning,
I can see the "real" Sam shining through, finally.
She is sitting on her own,
has some little cars and trucks to play with,
shows her displeasure at times with the procedures (he he he),
and her smile.....so precious!
