Great News!
Hello everyone:
I am thrilled beyond belief to inform you that we received word today that the insurance company will indeed pay for a power wheelchair for Savanna. As you all know, we had given up and had relinquished to ordering a manual wheelchair because the appeal for a power chair had already been denied twice. We have no idea what transpired; we are just thanking God for the answer to prayer. I would love to think that it was my compelling letter to the Human Resources Department informing them of how they were hindering my child from developing and functioning independently, but know that is truly God’s hand that is in place. I had prayed, along with so many of you, that God would change the hearts and minds of the “decision makers” at the insurance company into reversing their denial. There is nothing more awe-inspiring than answers to prayers.
I am also thrilled to report that after nearly 7 months, we have finally signed a contract on our house. A young couple who just looked at our house on Saturday made an offer this morning and we are scheduled to close January 29th. Our new home should be finished sometime in the next 2-4 weeks, so I am trying to light a fire under everyone’s behind to get our new home done so that we may close on it before we close on this one. We will be installing the flooring in the new home since we wanted to do almost entirely hard surfaces so that the home would be wheelchair friendly. I’m sure most of you can imagine how expensive in upgrades that would have been to let the homebuilder install wood and tile floors throughout the house, so we opted to close on the home with concrete floors and we will install them ourselves. I’m sure Tim would love some help if any of you are available.
I cannot even begin to express my gratitude tonight as I reflect on the blessings of today. It’s almost as if I’m dreaming and someone needs to pinch me. I was reminded last week that after a “season of testing” comes a “season of blessing”. I think we have weathered our season of testing now for about a year and a half and am looking forward to a wonderful season of blessing. Although Savanna was very sick over the Thanksgiving holiday, she was well for Christmas and actually fought off a cold the day after Christmas. As usual, her therapist was just amazed today that she “somehow” seems stronger than when she saw her last, which was about 3 weeks ago. For some reason, she tends to become physically stronger after coming thru an illness. While you typically see SMA children progress in their disease and get weaker, Savanna seems to hold her own and often times, gets stronger.
As always, I thank you all so much for the prayers and support. I am just ecstatic to be able to share such wonderful news and look forward to sharing some more. Tim is still unemployed, so please continue to pray in a great job for him. We are hopeful that something will come along either this week or next. I will be in touch. Hope you all have a great week!
Love,
Mindy
