On Wednesday we took Gracie to see Dr. O. All is looking good with her eyes (except for tumors and vitreous seeds). We also picked out two pairs of glasses for eye protection. She wanted nothing to do with trying on glasses and tried to hide her head from us when we did. Until I pulled out a pair of pink miraflex glasses. They are completely soft plastic, ultra flexible, impossible to break and kind of look like she's wearing goggles. But as I put them on her she said with glee "I like these!" So we got her a pair to wear around the house as she'll more likely keep them on. She can roll around and play and they'll stay comfortable. They won't protect her eyes too much if she isn't wearing them! We also got her a pair of dressier ones to wear when we go out. They look adorable too. We'll be able to pick them up in a week, so stay tuned for pictures of her modeling them. She's just so darn cute, even in the miraflex ones (she got the square shape in pink pearl).

Thank goodness she found some she likes! It must be nearly impossible to keep glasses on a kid who doesn't want to wear them. We eagerly await pictures!
I came across your blog a few months ago. I have become touched by Gracie, she really shows how important it is to keep fighting. I know that this might seem werid but I was wondering if I may send her something for the holidays.
Jamie,
Thank you for your interest and concern in Gracie. She's our little angel (one of them). We appreciate that you'd like to get her something for Christmas and we don't find it weird, rather very generous, but in interest of safety we'd rather not give our address out.
I'm sure you understand. Thank you again for your kindness.
Stephanie and James
