WOW WOW WOW WOW WOW WOW!

Thank you so much to Professional Miracles Foundation for their generous grant for Julia's hippotherapy! I heard of this foundation through my mother's best friend many months ago, but never applied - just busy and figured there were so many other kids "more" deserving than Julia....but, one day at work, I had a spare minute, and went to their website, as Julia's funds for hippotherapy were running very low............I applied, thinking, "well, it won't hurt to ask" and sent in her info. A week later I got a response that they would consider her as a candidate. They asked me how much money I was requesting. I didn't feel right putting a number on it, and just said, "even one session at $60 would be great!". Well, today, about a month later, I got a voicemail - from a number I didn't recognize which is usually never good - and decided to listen to the message. SIX MONTHS of hippo! A grant for SIX MONTHS of hippotherapy once weekly - DONE! WOW! The power of putting yourself out there. Once Julia's settlement hits - hopefully by the end of the year - my hippo out of pocket expense - will be DONE! AND she still gets to go, as this will be covered by her settlement! I am estatic! It is NOT all about the money - as many might think - but, when it comes down to it - this was one therapy that was going to have to go until I got the settlement! And most of you likely saw Julia STANDING on the horse walking around the arena on my last post on facebook. SHE LOVES IT! I am sooooooooooooooooo thankful this will continue. Amazing what these foundations will do for kiddos like Julia! Thank you to all of those out there who really get it! Today was a GREAT day!
