One week post hospital

We went back to Barrow Neuro Rehab today so Savannah could visit all her therapists. Although they were just doing their jobs they did them very well. They have impacted Savannah's life immensely and she will forever be grateful to them. Again, they were only doing their job but they did it with such personal care and formed a relationship that is very special to Savannah. Then we went to the Ronald Mcdonald house to drop off some things we took and pick up some things we left. The littles wanted to stay at "Mickey-Donald's" house and they were sad that we had to leave. Savannah was emotional and bummed about saying goodbye again at the hospital. So overall it was a bittersweet day.

Yesterday we had a lot of fun swimming at Grandma's. Savannah did great going under the water and using all four limbs to swim. She loves the pool and we are hoping that she will get to do aquatic's therapy at the new rehab center. Also, Dax and Graci held onto a noodle and kicked around the pool for the first time by themselves. I hope we can get a lot more swimming in this summer. Before Savannah's accident we were going to do swim lessons this summer but now I think we will just learn it on our own.
