Samatha's Story

Not The End...

Well, I was right. She has stopped progressing as much. She can do some of the typical stuff kids do, but it is just harder for her. She can barely climb stairs or playground equipment. When she runs, her feet are turning out again. I feel so bad because I just knew this was going to happen. They should not have taken her out of therapy. I told them that, but I didn't do anything about it when they did, because I thought "Maybe they are right. They are the professionals." But they are not her parents. They do not know what is best for her. The saddest part of all this that nobody understands that Samantha just can't do all the same stuff as kids her age. Even family. They think she can do all the things my little brother who is her age can do. And they make her feel bad when they say something about it in front of her. To be honest, if you see her out somewhere, you wouldn't think that she couldn't, but if you actually played with her on a playground or something, you would be able to tell. 


So now, she has another appointment on the 4th with PPS to maybe get fitted for orthodics again. The doctor said she wants to have her checked out. Even if she doesn't get them though, it will be nice to get some of my concerns out about her. Like when you hold her, she is literally 40 pounds of dead weight because she just help you. And I don't know...I just don't get it. What happened?
