Day 31, 11 p.m. medical update


A short and sweet medical update, as they say a picture is worth a thousand words.
For the first time in a long time, Sage went outside. Felt the sun, caught the wind, saw the green. 84 minutes of peace, bliss, silence and green. Of wiggling toes in outside air. Feeling warmth upon the skin.
So much for which to be grateful.
Blessings and thanks.

  8. Sophie,

    I'm a friend of Hilary's from church, my family and I have been praying for Sage since day 1. My one son especially asks when I am reading the blog how Sage is doing. I wanted to tell you how very much I have enjoyed your daily updates, I'm sure this as well as all of the love, support, prayers and stellar medical care Sage has received are all key factors in the progress Sage has made. It has been a pleasure meeting you and Sage through this challenging time for you and Sage! Sophie you are a very talented writer! You and Sage are in our thoughts and prayers often! Take good care of yourself too! Carolyn Hrdlick

  15. Oh Sage,

    How glorious—your spirit, your brave life force, your being outside today with a smile on your face (not yesterday when you weren't ready, but today, when you were.)

    You are a wonder, a simple and complex wonder.

    With appreciation and congratulations to your strength and love of life, and who you are.
