Journal entry by nancy rowbotham —
What a difference a month makes. Olivia is back to playing softball, not 100% yet with her running and catching but on the way. Her hitting is on fire again and she played in the Seniors Game Night at Nationals last night which was so much fun for her and all the Seniors who attended. One of her Delano teammates, Carly, who she has played with for the last 9 years was on her team, too. It has been wonderful seeing her back to her sassy, sweet self. With all the years of pain she has been in, it is amazing to see her smiling more and enjoying life more. She is still experiencing muscle spasms as the nerves reconnect and the pain from that will probably be going on for the next few months but it is worth it since there is finally an end in sight. Her fastpitch team starts bracket play tomorrow at Nationals and have one more tournament next week then on to her Senior trip and college. Keep her in your prayers that her muscle spasms subside soon. The Summer is flying by!
