Today Kelsi worked really hard in therapy. She did a lot of walking with a walker and some help from her therapist. It's really hard to see her struggle with such simple tasks, but she is getting stronger and her attention span is getting better each day. When we were in with the speech therapist she smiled a big cheesy smile. We were both so excited and we kept asking Kelsi to give us another cheesy smile. It was so fun to see those pretty white teeth. She is also attempting to form words now. It is still a whisper but she has said several different words now. Many people have asked us how long she will be in rehab. Of course there is no exact time frame, but today the head doctor told me they expect her to be there 4 - 6 weeks. Then she will come home. It may be shorter and it even could be longer. The doctor feels that she will be ready at that time. We will see!! We love all of you! Thank you for everything.
