Hey all...its been a couple of weeks since my last update. Not much has happened as of late. Ethan is continuing to amaze us and we are so excited to get those casts off!! Only 4 more weeks to go and we can start making some tracks...pretty exciting. Of course, this week it was announced that again, our insurance options for this next year would not cover more than 90 visits of combined therapy (OT & PT; For those of you counting...that's 45 visits each and less than 1 visit a week for the year) so we're back to the battleground trying to figure out what we'll do in 2011 to help get Ethan the therapy he needs. We've all come so far to be torn down by limitations by Insurance restrictions. Needless to say, the gloves are on to find something that we can afford and manage.
Outside of that, I've had some challenges whereby I ended up with pneumonia. After 2 rounds of antibiotics I think I'm on the mend. Just taking it slow and easy so I can beat this crud once and for all. Thankfully the kids are all okay.
Outside of that we just thank our blessings for all of the new things Ethan is demonstrating he can do. Its truly exciting and amazes us each and every day...
Until later...

Oh no. sorry about the insurance mess! I went through that when I had my knee replaced. MN care did not cover PT! I pay so much a month & they just have to accept it. I needed it. Too bad our system is so bad! Can't wait to hear about it when his casts come off! John continues to see little improvements! Small to others...big to us! His neurologist was amazed at his strength gains today. Hope your pneumonia goes away ASAP!
