We've created this blog to answer the "How's Lola doing?" question. She's overcome meningitis, encephalitis, a five-month hospital stay,endless tests, hours of physio/OT/speech, and still, she has a smile on her face. Currently, we're battling the seizure monster - some days we don't win. She's still fighting. She's taught us so much about strength, and resiliency, and about loving our children just a little bit more.

Still a Lefty, but that's okay...
Lola used her right hand yesterday!! She bent over to pick up a piggy bank, which was heavy, and her right hand helped with the lifting this time!! I was so excited I was yelling, "Steve, Leni! Come look!" She did it a few more times after that. Usually, you can see that her right hand "wants" to help out - it does this kind of jerky movement in the general direction of what she wants to do, but then nothing really happens. This time it was so natural - she just put her hand on the toy and brought it to me!
