Update
Madi had quite the difficult surgery in August. Dr. came back after x ray and asked her if she had been experiencing more pain than usual...she just shrugged... " a little I guess".
hmmm, I guess.. sometime a few months prior the "hook" in her shoulder had popped out of the bone, and was eating away at muscle tissue, bone and skin.
SO, instead of an adjustment on both sides, we had to do a replacement on the left side.
Recovery was very painful and LONG. She still is not back to "normal Madi activities" like dance, phys ed, etc. This is very difficult for her, as those who know Madi will attest. She is singing, in the school musical, and pounding away on her new drum set (thanks, Dave)...but misses her dance classes and friends ALOT.
She is a teenager now. If you go back into the archives and follow her journey, I think you will be just as amazed at her being a teen as I am! She has gone through so much...too much... and I am so immensely proud of her.
She is all things good in my life... a hard working student, a song bird, a smile that makes my smile grow bigger.
She is my blessing and I only hope that the end of this long medical journey draws nearer. She may never be "big" and she may never stand "tall", but she is has THE biggest heart and tallest aspirations of any child her age I know.
I think I like her a bit....
