Oh Sam I am so glad you're doing good, sweety. How cool that you're getting legs that bend! Wow I bet that's going to be lots of fun! Hugs to you sweet, beautiful girl.

Happy Spring...well, maybe.
Sam's been doing well since the last update.
Her renal labs continue to be the same, and between preK and PT,
she managed to find time to celebrate her 5th birthday last month--so hard to believe!
We went to clinic in Lexington in February, and they confirmed what several of us had suspected-
-she'd outgrown her legs! We went down for casting shortly after that, and we just returned
from a week-long stay with Sam's new legs,which bend at the knee.
No more starter legs for Sam! Of course, it's a whole new ballgame, and
will be a major transition--Kate will be busy w/her in therapy. The prosthetist did put
what they call a "spring assist" in the knee joints, so they will straighten and lock a little on their own,
until she gets used to them and has better control. I was very proud of how hard she worked in Lexington,
and what a big girl she's getting to be.
Needless to say, she charmed everyone she met!
In less exciting news, the dentist gave Sam her first fillings...but Sam was brave,
and we got through it!
Enjoy some new pics in the gallery, and
keep Sam in your thoughts as she begins this new phase.
Thanks,
Jessica

WOW a big 5 years old now. I am so happy to hear how well you are doing and about your new pair of legs with bendable knees. How cool is that.
Yes, I agree that Jessica is one brave little girl, for everything that she has had to endure.
Good luck in this new phase that you will be going through. I have no doubt in my mind that you will come through this like a trooper as you have done in the past.
Seeing your lovely pictures always puts a smile on my face.
