We’ve now been at Sunny Hill since Monday, and I won’t lie — it’s been a bit overwhelming. We’ve been busy meeting so many different team members, trying to learn the routines here, and figuring out how to manage Presley’s ongoing pain and discomfort in the midst of it all. But even with all of that, Presley has continued to be absolutely exceptional. Her strength and spirit never cease to amaze me.

Next week marks the beginning of our daily therapy schedule. Each day, we’ll be given a checklist of exercises and tasks to complete, both with the rehab team and independently throughout the day. Right now, our main focus is building strength in Presley’s hips and back, which means a lot of time on the floor — stretching, engaging, and working toward a stronger core and lower body.

A big update this week: Presley now has a pair of leg braces that go over her orthotics. These are designed to keep her knees as straight as possible so she can get a full stretch and proper lengthening post-surgery. They’ll help support her alignment when she’s standing and doing various activities — which is critical for the kind of progress we’re hoping to make while we’re here.

The next few weeks will be all about building a strong foundation — one that supports not just her healing, but her long-term mobility and strength. It’s a lot, but we’re doing it one step, one stretch, and one moment at a time.

Thank you for continuing to follow along and support us. We feel your love with us every single day.

With love,
Paige & Presley 💛
