Finally getting over "sticky" heat

So, it has been eleven days and I think that she is finally getting over this viral cold.  I was relieved to say that through all of the many fevers, medication every four hours, predisone, abuterol, and multiple naps during the days, she did not have a seizure.  She has continually been going up hill.  We really saw a difference today at a friends birthday party.  Luckily for everyone, the rain held and the overcast clouds relieved us from the deep heat.  We were outside with the multitude of toddler activities.  Eva was so thrilled to be outside.  She was literally walking from one swing to a Tike car; from a jumper to a wagon; from a chair back to the swing.  When she would loose her balance and fall forward, she would shift her weight forward and squat to stand up.  Her activity today was from about three weeks ago and she was so close, then took a turn backwards, and is now speeding back to where she was.  I am still hoping and predicting that she will be in full walking mode by her sister's birthday in August. 
An update on the Legal case:  I have received letters from our orthopedic, pediatrician and our neurologist. I have also asked three different therapist for letters.  They are all supporting Eva's case against the CSHCS of Indiana.    I will continue to push this issue forward until she gets the services she deserves.
