Journal entry by Christina Paxton —
Hello Everyone!
I apologize for not updating this as often as I hoped I would.
Gracie is doing amazing she has been doing therapy twice a day which includes speech , physical and occupational. She is still at children’s but for the last 6 weeks has been in their nuero recovery program. Christmas morning we heard Gracie’s voice again for the first time since the accident! Best present ever for our family ! She is slowly getting stronger in every area. She can hold normal conversations with everyone and express her wants and needs clearly. She started with taking small steps in physical therapy and is now using a walker a few times a day with less and less assistance each time. Eating is still a huge struggle for her which is why she is still on a feeding tube , but just like everything else she’s getting stronger each day there as well. She has a long journey ahead of her but her strength and dedication is more inspiring than anything I have ever experienced. Thank you for all the prayers and support Gracie and our family has received in so many different ways and keep the prayers and good vibes coming please!
