Has it really been December since I updated the blog?!?! WOW No news is good news!! I am happy to say that Jordan is doing great!! It is 7am as I write this and
it was 4 years ago that they had just
wheeled her back to the OR and her real journey began. As I reflect on that day, there are lots of emotions.
That was the longest day of my life that
was filled with too much unknown! The waiting room was filled with tons of people there to support Jordan and our family. Jordan
has had a long windy journey since this day 4 yrs ago. Multiple surgeries,
therapy, more therapy, even more therapy, and adjusting everyday routines to compensate for her motor skill deficits. Her outcome has been so good because she had great doctors and therapist!
On May 14th she graduated from MSU with
honors in radiology sciences. I must
tell the sweetest story of the beautiful yellow dress she wore. Cory picked that dress out himself at Ralph
Lauren (with a little face time help from Taylor). He wanted to surprise her with a new dress
for graduation. Well he could only hold
the surprise for about 4 hours! LOL She
loved the dress and picked out some small wedge sandals to wear with it. YES…..she actually could walk in them!!! Made
me nervous as hell but another obstacle
she has overcame!!! She has taken and passed her RT
(xray) CT(cat scan)boards and will soon sit for her MRI boards. She is also now working part time for a local
hospital. There are just no words to describe the feeling that I had as a Mom
watching her walk across the stage. Just
knowing what all she has gone thru and overcame brought lots of happy tears to
not only me but to all that could attend.
There isn’t a day that goes by
that I am not still truly amazed by her.
Her future is bright!!!
Now I am sure some of you are asking when is the wedding
date?!?! Still no date yet! They are in no hurry and that is fine with meJ Cory
has been a part of this family for so long and with school being done I am sure
a date will come soon J
Again thank you to each and every one of you that continue
to pray and be a cheerleader for Jordan. All of you have been down this journey
with her and us in some form or fashion.
We are very grateful for each and every one of you. PRAY FOR JORDAN
