All smiles with her new backpack and officially ditched the IV pole!
One downside is she still has to carry her heavy telemonitor, so we’re figuring out the best way to manage that weight, sometimes we hold it for her, sometimes she carries it in her pack.
But right now she’s just happy she can move at her own speed again, run in the grass, and feel a little bit of freedom. The goal is simple: keep her active, keep her safe, and let her be a kid as much as possible in the middle of all of this.
So grateful for options that give her even a little more independence
