Mom here

Laura, I'm glad the gal visited your home and did the assessment. It takes me back to when Dr. Ahmad's eyes lit up with the realization of what was causing Alicia's problems. We knew something wasn't right and so did he, but sometimes it takes a different perspective to see it. So now we can get her to the people who can be of help in determining exactly what it is that will help her. You and Justin have done everything right. The girls have had all of their doctor's visits, you read to them, pray with them, involve them in so many varied activities. Audrey and Anna are two very sweet, intelligent girls, and we're so proud of you as parents. So now, if Anna needs extra help with gross motor skills, she will get it, and we will all help out however we can. I did some reading up on things last night too. Even if she has cerebral palsy,( which we need to let the experts decide) the strides they've made are phenominal from what I saw. We don't know that's the case at all, but today's medical possibilities are miracles in themselves. So, whatever her needs are, they'll be met. And, as Sarah and Nora stated, we're all here to help in any ways we can. Dad and I would love to come Friday night unless you have other family members coming then. Just let us know, O.K.? And yes, GOD IS IN CONTROL. Rest in his arms. It's like the bicycle story. We're on a tandem bike with God, and we want to take the front seat. No! Let Him drive. He'll take us on a journey unlike any that we could possible dream of. We need to trust him. I'm going to dig up that devotion and use it this morning at school. We love you so VERY much. As I was talking with Ann, we discussed how we just want to put a bandaid on our kids and fix their problems for them. Sometimes we can't, but God will provide others who can. What we CAN do is pray and give support. Give the girls a big hug from Gramps and Nana.
