We've been back home a week. Teeny has only had a small decrease in pain so far, but she attended school every day this week and her pain is expected to decrease as she follows the program and stays more functional.

I've been exhausted the entire week. But I'm get to see Eddie Izzard performing her one person show The Tragedy of Hamlet tonight!

Thank you. We've been waiting for months.

Yes! We have many layers and goofy distraction is always welcome!

It is a lot of work, but I am hoping it's more fun than grueling for her. I think it will be great for her to be with other kids her age and older.

Thanks. The doctor we saw in their pain program over the summer said that they have more success than adult programs because kids have more neuroplasticity.

Teeny (now 5' 3"!) starts a pain rehab program at Boston Children's on Tuesday. We are heading up to Boston tomorrow and expect to be there 4-6 weeks. We have been waiting for almost a year for this. We are all cautiously optimistic that this will help. It's an outpatient program but for 8 hours every weekday.

Or, it could be that forecasts have more errors due to cuts to NOAA and fewer federal weather satellites—just like we were told was going to happen

My FIL had a wine locker in California for a while and he never lived near California. They would ship the bottles from his collection as requested.

He lived in Baltimore for a while when Maryland did not allow shipments of wine for personal use. So he would have a case sent to Mr. T, who was paid with one amazing bottle of wine per shipment.

Sounds like a good day.

I have been procrastinating most of the day.

I forgot to post a photo of 5' 2" Teeny in the snow
