Unbelievable

It’s unbelievable - how far she’s come.

Today Katherine was so incredibly busy with her “normal” life- that when her oncologist basically “broke up with us” it came to me as a real blow and I almost started crying! What do you mean - next visit will be our last visit? and she’ll be transferred to the “Next Steps Clinic.” What if she’s not ready for the next steps? Then I looked at all she did today and I realized- I may not be ready for the next steps- but she is. I can’t believe all of the the things she did today- without so much as a thought about cancer- or even Down syndrome. This kid is going places- and I know it because I had to driver her ... 

Best Day Ever

First ever Piano lesson (Thanks Mrs Penniman for taking a chance on Katherine,) Oncology Visit and book delivery for other cancer kids (thank you donors), zoo trip, Yerkes visit to pick up sister, and first SMILES horsey ride of the season (thank you to all those who donate locally and regularly to this organization- your gift makes lives better.)

Now- it’s time for second dinner and bed.
