Heidi had her birthday Saturday! She is now 20. She has come a long way not very many people can say they are learning to walk again at age 20. But she is and she is doing amazing!
Heidi has good and bad days just like all of us only her struggles are quite different. But she's had such a great attitude, Heidi also has a funny sense of humor. She makes us laugh constantly, she always craves chocolate, jamba juices and more chocolate.
As far as physical therapy is going, she is doing wonderful. Her favorite part is the bike she rides, to strengthen her arms and legs, she smiles a lot when she is on that one. Heidi is walking now with better ballance she walks with a walker by her self but some one is behind her incase she falls.
For some reason Heidi uses her left hand more, she used to be right handed. They are working on strengthening her right hand. She works with a speech therapist to make her voice strong. Each day she sounds better and better. She speaks almost perfect when she is mad! Always accusing Rachel of wearing her clothes, sounds like the Heidi we all know doesn't it?
Anyway we are all so proud of her and her accomplishments! She is an inspiration to all of us. We appreciate everyone's prayers and services. With Heidi's determination and all of your prayers, faith and love Heidi will recover fully!
We will keep you updated
Thanks,
Love Heidi's family

YAY! Happy Birthday Heidi..quite late...It sounds like things are coming along. I will not grumble about my Physical Therapy, because I don't have nearly the challenge that Heidi has. Left handed??? What's wrong with being Left handed? We are the only ones who are in the right mind! :P
