Day two...and three...

Has been great! Hailey has been great! Yesterday (day two) she woke up full of happiness and sunshine! She was sweet and kind all day (unusually so), and had pretty much no pain! Here is a picture of her at bedtime with her 'broken' bear that has a brace on its arm just like her (thanks to Nanna Teresa).



She has amazed me, but even more our Lord has amazed me with the answers he has sent to our prayers, both mine and yours. She is not in pain, she is not being a grouchy grizzly bear, and she is doing EXCELLENT with her abduction brace!! I was most concerned about the 6 weeks recovery- but she is surpassing all expectations! Here are a couple of pictures for you all to see it in it's entirety:
the front...



and the back...




Last night she had to have a sponge bath, since we can't get the brace wet, and she got to have her head laid back in the sink like at the salon to get her hair washed, she just thought it was pretty neat to lay up on the kitchen counter! But I must confess, after 6 weeks, I am thinking this girl is gonna be ripe! She's gonna be going and going and going like the engergizer bunny, and that's alot of sweating!! Just today we were outside making grass/rock/mud meals and digging for worms.... :~)

And so far, Hayden has not recieved any significant head or body trauma- so keep your fingers crossed on that one!

More pics and updates to come in the days to come- gotta get back to work now! :)

Love and Blessings,
TeReSa
