Holly died a year ago today

Holly, one year ago.
It was exactly a year ago today (3 March 2012) that we raced like maniacs from Sutton B&Q to the resuscitation unit at St. Helier's. It was a year ago today we were told that Holly was brain dead and there was no activity behind the eyes. It was a year ago today we were THEN told she was successfully revived. It was a year ago today we began our month's residency with the amazing folk at Evelina Children's Hospital.

I keep thinking sometimes that in a parallel universe somewhere (OK, I've been watching WAY too much Fringe lately) Alternate Sue and I are visiting a grave today and wishing beyond wishing that what happened hasn't actually happened. I can't begin to imagine what our lives would be like, what mental state we'd be in had the alternate reality happened. Thankfully we haven't had to find out.

Not to say the past year has been without it's problems due to this - we've had medications, therapies as well as a diagnosis of Choreoathetosis, which is a type of Cerebral Palsy where there are too many unwanted movements. At the moment, we've been told worst case scenario is wheelchair and never walking - but that's worst case.

It's been a long year and we made it through. I'd like to thank everyone again one year on for their wishes and prayers and I would be utterly remiss not thanking all the professionals and specialists who have been working with us to ensure that Holly's little brain recovers as much functionality as it possibly can.

    When I originally left a comment I seem to have clicked on
    the -Notify me when new comments are added- checkbox and from now on every
    time a comment is added I get 4 emails with the exact same comment.
    Perhaps there is a way you can remove me from that service?
    Thanks!

    Its like you read my mind! You seem to know a lot about
    this, like you wrote the book in it or something. I think that you can do with a few pics to drive the message
    home a little bit, but instead of that, this
    is wonderful blog. A fantastic read. I will definitely be back.

    Howdy would you mind letting me know which hosting company you're utilizing? I've loaded your blog in 3 different
    internet browsers and I must say this blog loads a lot faster
    then most. Can you recommend a good web hosting provider at a fair price?
    Thanks, I appreciate it!

    I was curious if you ever considered changing the
    structure of your blog? Its very well written;
    I love what youve got to say. But maybe you could a little more in the way of content so people
    could connect with it better. Youve got an awful lot of text for only having 1 or two pictures.
    Maybe you could space it out better?
