More Stem Cells!

Hi Everyone,

We’re excited because I’m going back to Panama to get more stem cells! We’re leaving soon. The Dr.’s were excited about how much I gained so far and they want me to come back for another treatment. It has been over 2 years now since my last treatment. I have gained more and more after each treatment and we are excited to see what this treatment will bring. It’s expensive to have to go out of the country to do this,  but we know I have to keep trying to heal as much as possible.  Please keep us in your prayers as we continue our journey to healing. If anyone is interested in donating to our cause please look at the options on the side of my blog. (Pay Pal or National Bank of Arizona)  

Things are going good here. The kids are growing like weeds. Parker is now a Freshman in High School, Hunter is in 7th grade and Savannah is now a year old. We are having lots of fun with them. 

I’m still working out hard in Physical Therapy. I switched places that I work out at now. I now go to Rehab Arizona. They specialize in neuro dealing with spinal cord injuries. They have a cool machine there that I love working out on. It’s a anti gravity machine that I walk in. It’s cool because they can adjust the amount of weight that goes on your legs when walking. Then there is a treadmill underneath me that I walk on. It feels as if you’re walking on the moon. It is so cool! I was even jumping the other day. I hadn’t done that in 5 years and it felt so awesome! When I walk in the machine I wear my half braces that go below my knees, but I am doing all of the walking on my own. It’s just easier because I don’t have as much weight on my legs. I walked for 30 minutes the other day and went over a mile. So much fun! I hope I continue to improve even more after I get another round of stem cells. I also hope the stem cells can continue to help with my continuous nerve pain. It is such a bummer to have this kind of pain because there isn’t much the Dr.’s can do for it. In many patients the stem cells have also helped with this. Well that’s all for now, I will update more as things progress, including posting some video of me walking in the antigravity machine. Thanks so much for keeping us in your prayers. :)
