Pneumonia…but it could have been a lot worse. Had it been sepsis, we would have had to make a decision (rather, the decision would have been made) regarding the amputation of Morgan’s feet. SO, pneumonia it is, and believe it or not, we are happy …

Too much has happened in 2012 that we are more than happy to say goodbye. Morgan continues physical therapy to try and help her walk. Unfortunately, her feet are not cooperating and have been the cause of much concern. The word amputation has been used …
