Kellyanne and I are by ourselves this weekend. Michael and Eilís went to visit Michael, Jr, in Providence. (Go Friars!! Great win against St. John’s.) We’ve spent most of our time listening to music, her favorite activity as of late. Today, I decided to take Kellyanne to ZamDance which is an amazing program run by an amazing woman. It’s an hour of music and dancing for individuals with special needs. Very high energy! The bonus was that Kellyanne was happy to go. Lately she doesn’t want to go anywhere, so I considered this a win. We went and met some wonderful people and Kellyanne was loving showing off her stuff. As I was watching her dance, I noticed her bending at the knees and slowly going back. Luckily, I caught her before she fell and was able to drag her to the side. I was immediately flanked by very caring individuals who offered assistance. Kellyanne got it together and didn’t want to leave so she sat in a chair and clapped to the music. Eventually she got up and danced with another mom holding her hands. She finished out the class and wants to go back next week. While seizures are inconvenient and disruptive, they don’t stop her. Go, Kellyanne, Go!
