You may have heard about little Abby Milani, she was burned in a

horrible accident a little over a month ago. Here is an update:

Hey everyone, things are going fast here. Yesterday Abby walked from her

room all the way to the playroom. She played with some toys in the

playroom, and even tried to eat a piece of play bread from the play

kitchen they have down there. So far she has eaten mashed potatos, mac

and cheese, a hot dog, green beans, corn, and apple sauce. We are

getting ready in just a little while to get her up to walk again. She

has to wear a face mask for about a year, and this is to keep pressure

on her grafts on her face to minimize scarring. So far it doesnt seem to

be a problem for her to wear, she has even been eating with it on. They

say she will have to wear this all the time except for eating and

bathing. If that is what it takes then so be it. She will eventually

have to wear pressure garmets on the rest of her body which will also do

the same things as the mask. It looks like she will be having hopefully

her last procedure for now, on Thursday and Friday of this week. They

say maybe another 4 weeks here and then maybe she could get to come

home, lets keep our fingers crossed. No matter how nice this place is,

it is definately not home, and that is where she needs to be, as well as

myself. They are doing therapy on her twice a day to keep her joints and

muscles moving to keep from her getting contractures. This will have to

be an ongoing thing even after she leaves here. I think we have a pretty

good support staff to do all these things, it will just be hard and

long, but if it makes her better, then we will do it. I will talk to you

all soon, Love, Abby and

Thanks as always for your ongoing support of 911 cares! www.911cares.com
