Thank you for your Prayers - Cate Update.

Thank you for your prayers...
from the Fleury Family
August started out as a very hard month for our family, with some pretty devastating news about Cate's injury and the challenges that still lay ahead for our family. As we did 5 years ago, we reached out to our friends and family to pray for Cate and help us to find the strength we needed to keep fighting the fight for our family.

And again, just like 5 years ago, things have started to fall into place. What we needed 5 years ago were the right doctors, therapist and other specialist to guide us. Your prayers have sent those people to us again! We had a wonderful meeting with some fantastic doctors at Boston Children's Hospital's Brain Trama clinic. Cate's story brought a tear to one of the doctor's eyes and she looked at us and said that Cate has so much potential and that she is so pleased with how strong she is and how much she has accomplished so far. She, and her team, have pointed us in a few new directions and we have now added a Behavioral Neurologist (a doc who specializes in how brain trama affects behavior and what things can be done to help the brain neurotransmitters work in harmony again), a Behavior Therapist (a child psychologist who specializes in the unique parenting skills required to help kids like Cate work through the challenges her injury presents), and last but not least, a Sensory Integration Therapist (don't ask me to expain, it is so confusing I'm not sure I understand it yet) to our ever expanding team of angels working on Cate's behalf!

Keep checking in with the site and we'll be sure to keep everyone posted as to how these new docs are working out and post all of Cate's exciting new improvments!

Thanks for your love, support and prayers,

God Bless,

The Fleurys
