(Taken with my iphone)
Today I am thankful for modern medicine. Without it, I would have died giving birth to my oldest, and he probably would have died along with me. Without it, none of my three children would be here today.
Because of modern medicine doctors were able to catch a problem with my sweet baby's hips. When Savy was 2 weeks old they heard a click and sent us to get an ultrasound. As it turns out, she was diagnosed with hip dysplasia. We were told she was going to have to wear this harness 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.

After one month in the harness, she had another ultrasound. Doctors were so impressed and said there had been such a dramatic improvement that she would only have to wear the harness at night and for naps. No surgery. :)
