Hi everyone were back finally.We have finally come home from the rehab, we transfered to the university of virginia health south 3 weeks ago, the traveling for mark and connor and me not seeing connor that often and not being able to go home to my own house on the weekends had taken its toll. D.J. we will never stop being involved with the web site and trying to help other people EVER. It has done so much to help us as you have and Dr. Steinberg have. We love you and you probably think we fell of the face of the earth we,re back and we will be on the site regularly.Mandy has done tremedous she is taking steps with her left leg on her own slowly, and moving her left arm much more and is actually just in the last week opening her fingers from being in a fist position on her own,its a great bit of progress.Shes still in great spirits laughing all the time and is thrilled to death to be home...we all are.We have made the necessary adjustments and got the equipment we need and its just more of the same hard work shes been doing and time and she,ll be back to normal. We were in rehab for 4 months. Anyone who needs advice or wants more details on Mandys strokes and we can help in any way please please please let us no. For those who don,t already know Mandy she is 20 years old. Hi Joyce, Arnold, and Amber we love and miss you guys too. Hope Amber is doing well we heard about her ear trouble. Hope it turned out o.k.We be in contact again soon .
