A Gift for Catherine Arrives

We have had an emotional week with Catherine's last chemo session going badly. But, today we had an awesome surprise. Catherine has had spine and lower body weakness her whole life. Her physical therapist has recommended that she get a specially designed tricycle for children with disabilities. This was hard for us to order, because I do not think of Catherine as disabled. But,t eh physical therapist strongly encouraged us to get this.
Unfortunately, these tricycles are very expensive. Thus, most families cannot afford them. The company has a grant program wherein people donate money to purchase these tricycles for children. Unbeknownst to us, someone in Irving, TX purchased this tricycle for Catherine. She was so excited to receive it and kept trying to sit on it before Robby could even get it assembled.
Of course Sabrina had to help unpack it also.
