Harriet turns 2 Years old
26 September 2022I thought I would give an update on our wee gal Harriet who amazingly turned 2 this month. What a ride it has been.
Since moving back to NZ she has been stable health wise other than seizures which she has daily.
They are not large seizures but more subtle movements that can be undetectable if you didn’t know her well. Some of them distress her and she is medicated quite heavily to help control them. The hard part is the medications dull her little personality. It’s a difficult trade off as we have to medicate to control them yet each time we increase or add a new medication she loses a little bit more of her sparkle.
She does however LOVE her food, especially bananas, cheese and avocados and her evening cuddle with Dad when he gets home from work. We feel so fortunate to have her with us and try to take each day as it comes. By the grace of God he has given us the strength and means to give her the best life that she can have.
We want to say thank you again for the prayers, kindness and help that has been given to her and us. We wouldn’t have been able to get through the last two years with out it.
In other news a younger brother arrived on the scene a few months ago. He has brought with him so much joy and cheekiness. We love him dearly.
From Rob, Adiella, Harriet + Walter

Happy birthday, Harriet.
Great to hear you are all back in NZ, Adiella, and congratulations to you all on the arrival of Walter!
Bets wishes,
