Afternoon

This afternoon is going by fast. My dad is watching me do my exercises and my mom helps me pass the time by showing me funny things on Pinterest.

Day 6

Having fun with my dad at the clinic today!

Go Rangers!!!

Going to the Texas Rangers game with my family. :-) Go Rangers! The stadium is beautiful. They serve you food at your seat here! So cool!

Sunday

Today my daddy and brother came to Texas to see us. We went to the Fort Worth Stock Yard and Billy Bob's. Here are the hand prints of Blake Shelton from The Voice. My dad and I dancing at Billy Bobs.

Saturday

Today has been a great day off! I've been doing my exercises at home but the other part of the day has been fun. I'm spending the day with my cousin Addison. We met my Aunt Sherry for lunch. She was so sweet and brought us gifts and bought our lunch. We also made signs for Holly Cavanaugh & put them up all over. She's lives here in Texas near my family & she's on American Idol. We want people to vote for her!

On my way home

On my way home we stopped to get a cookie dough blizzard from Dairy Queen. Thanks to the Snyders for sending me $ to get one! It was so good! Then we stopped to visit some longhorns!

Friday!!!!!

Half way finished! Yay! :-) Another one of my mom's friends came by and brought me cookies and gifts. Thank you so much Erin. I love you!

Visitors!

Kyndal, my mom's friend since she was in 3rd grade came by today to visit me. :-) Thank you!

DAY 5!!!!

It's day 5 and I'm going crazy. Ha!
Last night I heard from a few school friends and it made me soooo happy! I
miss everyone so much!

Cousins

Getting home from therapy and having my cousins waiting for me makes it so much better!

Visitors

This afternoon Grammy & Gramps came by the clinic to visit me. I really appreciated it. Gramps talked to the doctor and Grammy watched me do exercises.

Lunch with Grammy & Gramps

Went to Cotton Patch with my Grammy & Gramps today. It's one of our favorite places to go when I'm in town. We always get banana pudding. I hate that I can't eat it cause I feel sick during my afternoon session if I eat very much at lunch. :-(

Me & My Doctor

Here's me and my doctor. He's making sure I do my exercises right.

DAY 4!

Today is day 4. Here's my mom and I leaving my grandparents house early this morning. It's still really hard getting up and getting going.

Lunch Break!

My Uncle Mandy came by today to watch me do my physical therapy and then went to lunch with us. I've called her "Uncle" instead of "Aunt" since I was a baby and it stuck. :-)
Today I'm exhausted and I just want to go home. I'm dreading doing a certain machine because yesterday I almost threw up while doing it. It straps you in pretty tightly and I had just eaten lunch. Not a good combo.

Day 3

I am back today for more of the same. Exercises & therapy.

Finding Nemo

Watching a movie to help pass the time and get my mind off things. Totally Dude....just keep swimming...fish are friends, not food.
:-)

Lunch with my Uncle Bugs

My Uncle Bugs met us for lunch at Macaroni Grill. It was a lot of fun and a nice break.
He and I like to take silly photos where we don't actually look at the camera. :-)

Treatment

My mom is reading to me to help get my mind off this machine. It's not comfortable at all.

Day 2

Starting day 2 and I am excited and tired. I am a little bit sore but it's not painful.
I love getting all the text messages, emails and posts from friends and family. A special shout out to Room 8 at Palm Crest! :-) I miss all of you and thanks for supporting me!

Home

So glad to be home at my Grammy & Gramps' house now.

Afternoon

Back to work. Some of these things look silly but I hope they work. Glad my mom is here with me.

Lunch Break

Just went to Red Lobster for my lunch break. I got snow crab but I didn't know how to open it. :-( We finally figured it out.  Now back for 2nd session of therapy. I am discouraged because my curve got worse in only one month. That really scares me.

Today is our first day here at the clinic. It was an early morning because we are still on California time. We are really tired but excited to get started. First thing they did was some testing and x-rays. Now I am starting on some machines to warm up my back.

1st Day of treatment

Thanks for following me on my new journey.

Last month I was diagnosed with scoliosis.

It was a big surprise....but not a good one.

I was worried how this would effect my life and my dancing.

So I have decided to try a 2 week intensive at a place in Texas that specializes in treating scoliosis to

try and reduce my curve.

I will be doing therapy 8 hours a day for 2 weeks.

I have started this blog to keep everyone updated and share my journey.

Thank you for all of your support and prayers!

Love, Reagan
