More of Marlee's Amazing Progress:


Everyday Marlee is getting stronger and making so much progress.   The last few days Marlee has started to eat pureed / soft foods.  She is interacting with us more.  And there is improvement in her motor skills, where she is trying to pick up and hold toys.  Here are some highlights from yesterday and today:

Marlee is always happy to play with her Sister

The plan is Marlee will get to go home Monday after her last Rituximab (immunosuppressant) therapy. Christina and Bernard have been getting educated on how to give meds and do Marlee's feedings with her NG Tube.  Friday night, the nurse thought it would be a good idea that Mommy & Daddy PRACTICE putting in NG tubes, just in case Marlee's came out at home.  Sooooo, there's no better way to practice then on each other!

Keep the prayers coming!! Look at all her progress! Marlee can't wait to go home.  And hopefully, God willing and if everything goes well, Marlee will be discharged home Monday evening!  She will need outpatient physical therapy and they have already arranged for all the medical equipment she will require.  It has been unbelievably amazing to see all her progress this week.  It has definitely been a very blessed week for Marlee.

Even though Marlee should be coming home soon.  The support and help is still needed to help with all of her medical expenses and financial challenges her family will be facing in the near future.   Continue to share her story, blog, and donation site.  We thank all of you for all the continued prayers and love!!  We couldn't do it with out all of your help and support!!
