Thanks be to God....
And to all of you for your prayers that have brought about a miracle!
Here is the latest journal entry with a link to a video clip of Bella walking.
Yes - she is on YouTube!
Following that she walks with help from Drina (her Aunt Kim and Godmother).
You can see she is losing her pretty hair with chemo but it will grow back.
This child is so full of grace, joy and just plain guts!
This is nothing short of a miracle....she was paralysed and doctors said she may never walk again. I am crying with joy! - Maggie

Dear Family & Friends:
Glory and Praise to our God!!! Through His healing hand, Bella has begun to walk after 62 days of paralysis.
Click here to see her first steps: http://youtube.com/watch?v=U4lfN-G9Tlc
Yesterday she took 7 steps without the walker and today- SHE TOOK 43 STEPS WITHOUT THE WALKER!
For God there is NOTHING impossible! Doctors told us that she would likely never walk again. But God's loving grace and the many prayers requesting His favor, have resulted in this miracle that we are all blessed to witness.
Bella is in great spirits and by God's will be going home on Sunday evening. Thank you, thank you, thank you, for your many unselfish and heartfelt prayers on our (especially) Bella's behalf. May you be richly blessed for your continued prayers, love, and support.
The Rodriguez-Torres Family
