A new friend


Today we made some very special friends. After scanning YouTube, I found an adorable little girl who had arthrogryposis in her upper extremities like Sara. I e-mailed her mom, and lo-and-behold, they lived in Southern California! So, after a few e-mail exchanges, we were able to meet a few days later (Gotta love the Internet). Sweet Mikaela and her family have been the first other family we've met in person regarding arthrogryposis, so it was definitely a special day. The condition is so rare (especially in uppers only), that we can't help but to be thankful to meet someone else in the area. We had a great time together and are looking forward to many more visits.
