Emily just turned 22 in July. It just blows me away! If I remember correctly, she was around 10 when I found Uno Mas, and this site has been SO important to me for all those years! This was where I raced to post about everything about Emily.....and the rest of our family too! You all have "been there" for me during great times, and some bad times too. Emily goes to see her neuro-opthamologist in Ohio next week, and we are very hopeful that she'll get good news. We have watched her vision improve steadily (although slowly) since 2010 when we were told that she would soon be totally blind. Today, Emily had an almost 3 hr evaluation by TN Rehab Center. Our goal is that she will be able to go there M-F from 8-4:30 for the next year. They teach job skills and actually put the students to work, where they can bring home a paycheck. She's very excited about it!
Everyone.........keep on posting about your kids. Although we are not as active as we once were, MANY of us are still reading!

22? Where does the time go? I've been reading about Emily since she was 13 or 14 . . . 22 just doesn't seem possible. It is, however, great to hear that she's doing so well and excited about the TN Rehab Center. Looking forward to further updates. Kim

Emily's visual progress in spite of the dismal predictions has been nothing short of amazing!
You and Emily have always been an inspiration to me, as has Jackie and her Emily. I'm thrilled that she is looking forward to her next chapter!

I beg to differ my sweet Susan but Emily was not that old I have Zach as proof, lol. When I first came on here, he was just a year old which makes Chase 8 and Emily nine and you were already here and the very first friend I made <3 ( ere they really already that old???) I have been gone so lon I have forgotten how to post pictures, someone help? Robin

You're right, Robin......but then, your brain is a few years younger than mine! I can't tell you how GOOD it is to see you here again!!!
