Izzy's story:
Isabelle was always a very busy girl... her nickname was busy Izzy...
She was however very afraid of water, bath water and pool water. 
I never imagined she would end up floating in our pool.
She was outside playing with her siblings and wandered off for only a few minutes.
She was quickly found and we immediately began CPR.
She was taken to the hospital and given a poor prognosis.
Her eyes opened the day after the accident and she appeared to be responsive, but then developed an infection and began posturing...
After a few months in "rehab"... she was sent home.
She had her breathing tube removed within a week of the accident and her g-tube removed within 6 months of her accident.
She is making progress slow but sure and we are praying and believing for a complete healing for Isabelle.  She is a beautiful baby (big girl) and loved by everyone who meets/works with her!!!
