Another day 9/19/26 and another hard appointment. And by now you can predict how Leah handled it. And we never feel prepared. Every appointment breaks our hearts.
Leah was fitted for her compression garments today. Her left hand sleeve fit great and she loves her Skye glove. Sadly her right hand garment needed to be sent back for adjustments.
Unfortunately Leah’s entire right hand is now experiencing contractures. Her wrist is contracting in the down position. Her thumb is now being pulled in. Everything is getting super tight.
What’s next:

What’s next:
- Leah needs a new cast. They cannot fully cast her because she still has blisters from the hand, foot and mouth that are not healed and the extent of the bruising reaction from the previous cast.
- Leah will be scheduled for a conscious sedation casting session at some point this week but they have to coordinate with the doctors schedule so we don’t know date and time yet. They will be making a bivalve cast (a cast cut into two sections) that can be removed daily to watch for reactions.
- Leah will have outpatient OT everyday starting tomorrow.
How to pray:
- Over Leah’s anxiety at appointments
- Miraculous healing for her right hand contractures.
Thank you for your on-going prayers and support!
