So could it be something like (TBI) Tramatic Brain Injury. Also PTSD for all her little body and mind have been through and continue to go through. <br /><br />Continued prayers for Lucy and all of you and the ongoing adjustments to normal. I agree with an earlier post. Normal is just a setting on the dryer.<br /><br />God Bless You All!!!<br /><br />Kristi<br />WA STATEFree2b57noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5845195637603537263.post-58780411418564954582012-07-25T10:07:54.259-05:002012-07-25T10:07:54.259-05:00Praying for you all as you maneuver this "new...Praying for you all as you maneuver this "new normal".
