Lilly Graduated from ECI!

Wow! I can honestly say after 5 years the Borak household is done with speech! Bryce started speech when he was younger, then Brock & it was a routine until today. Lilly being the last was able to officially say goodbye to all of it. It is kinda sad in a way, because my kids are growing up so fast. ECI was a life saver to us over all the courageous years & we want to thank them all! I was real ecstatic to get Lilly's final review. Lilly tested over the age of 39 months for her cognitive, communication, social-emotional & adaptive behavior. She was on the level for 33 months for physical. Which was not surprising, but more elated, since Lilly had such very low muscle tone. Lilly could not walk up the stairs foot after foot. Basically, you have to not touch the same stair your previous foot is already on. It is constant, one foot per stair repeatedly. However, I am delighted on Lilly's all around progress. This is not including Lilly's 3month of prematurity. She she is a year ahead. Boy, was I not shocked on that one! Now, we are down from 8 specialists to 2! Making great progress. I always believe that God gave us the time for Lilly's lungs to heal & he proved again how blessed we are. In just 2 years Lilly has chopped the number of doctors we were seeing to rarely anything. God is so good!
