blowing bubbles

We had a celebration for the children who returned from Turkey after surgery. It was great to see these kids who couldn't walk up stairs before play games where they had to take deep breaths and blow and they did great! They had a great time and it was so fun to watch their enjoyment and see how healthy they are looking.



Ahmed if you remember was one of the worst cases. He was very blue before surgery and could hardly walk. Look at him now! He is doing so much better and has been playing and gaining weight - he looks amazing!



This is Taban. She is doing great! Her family is worried that she's being TOO active because she loves to run around and play and is now totally healed. She will never need another surgery and will be able to grow up and have kids and live a normal life. Her dad loved playing the bean bag toss with her, it was really cute!


This is little Zana. He was the last to return from surgery and just got back a week ago. But look how great he is doing at blowing bubbles!


Here is the girls with our first child we sent to Turkey for surgery. She is the one in the middle in the red and she's doing great!
