So today was exciting (and tiring)!  Pearl has graduated from the PPRC program.  She has made so many improvements, and now she has plans for handling problems that come up.  She is also much stronger, and is again laughing and being silly and being outgoing.  I really think that of all the programs so far, this program was the most comprehensive and had the most impact on her physical, mental and emotional health.  And worked with her (well us!) to come up with plans for handling school and ADVOCATED for us with the school!  Hoping Monday goes smoothly and we see all these pieces fall into place.
