MRI anyone?

So much to share - we met with Dr. David Brown Pediatric Orthopedist today to review ZoZo's X-Rays. She does not have Scoliosis or any visible skeletal deformities.
This still does not explain why ZoZo cannot hold her head straight, she holds it down to her left chest.
Dr. Brown felt like she either has a muscular issue/condition or she has a mass, tumor or cyst. He questioned if she had full movement of her arms, fingers, toes and legs. He additionally was concerned about a possible Cranial Deformity as he noticed some of the pictures seemed to show this. He highly recommended an MRI as soon as possible to make a better diagnosis. I have contacted our agency with this new information and I am awaiting their next step.
Please pray for ZoZo, if she is in any pain -pray it eases, if she has a tumor - pray it stops growing, pray for the MRI and what it might reveal.

two eyes and one little red bracelet

We received additional photos today of ZoZo the first thing I noticed was her beautiful eyes and one little red bracelet she was wearing. Her eyes look older than 3yrs old and tired but you see this sweet little red bracelet on her arm and it reminds you that she is not unlike all other little girls her age.

I stared at her picture for a long time, studying everything about her wanting nothing more than to scoop her up and protect her.

We pray for her safety, health and comfort. We pray for her caretakers. We pray for the paperwork to move quickly. We pray for the money needed to complete this process and bring her home.

We invite you to join us in these prayers.....
