Overall, today was uneventful. Susanne made sure to incorporate a lot of therapy sessions for Paxton throughout the day. She even got bold and worked on oral feedings. Paxton was continuing to improve with his motor skills even though he was still significantly delayed. The oral feedings were less successful, but it was great news that he was at least receptive to Susanne putting the bottle in his mouth.
Susanne could not get enough of him. It really warmed her heart that he would smile everytime she was in his presence. His little face would light up when he realized it was her. He was the most precious thing in the whole world.
Later in the day, Susanne received a package. She was taken aback when she opened it. Susanne's sister, Kerry, and her brother-in-law, Nick, got her and Scott a blanket with pictures of Maverick on it for their birthdays. It was a way for them to always have him close. What a lovely way to remember the best dog ever. It was still a very delicate subject for all. Susanne immediately started to cry when she saw his handsome face. Her tears were not only because she missed him so much, but also because the gift was so thoughtful. She and Scott would cherish it always.
Susanne was excited it was Monday. She could not wait to watch the next episode of "The Bachelorette". She knew that it was trash TV, but she didn't care. It was actually very therapeutic for her.
