Twelve and a half weeks post transplant finds us settling in to our new routine at home for this phase of our lives, and we are loving every minute of it! This is what we have been praying and hoping for over these last several months, and now we are living it! Praise God for answered prayers!
Elena is doing well physically and emotionally. She is working hard to regain her strength and stamina by taking walks and doing other exercises. She loves to plan meals and help to prepare them. She is keeping up with her school work with the help of the home bound teacher, and can't wait for the day that her isolation restrictions are relaxed so that she can do even more.
Olivia has begun her second nine weeks at school. She ended the first nine weeks with great grades and perfect attendance. She is also enjoying dance class and chorus during the week. In December, her fifth grade chorus group will be performing at a Gwinnett Gladiators ice hockey game and at the state capitol. On weekends she likes playing outside and hanging out with Elena. She has been very understanding about the fact that we can't go places and do certain things as a family right now.
Elena's clinic appointment is on Wednesday this week. Please pray for continued healing for her body. Pray for the CMV virus to remain undetectable and for her counts to continue to improve.
Praying and believing!
In Him,
The Tates
