Seven months after Andee began her treatment, her neurological responses and her nutrition has improved.  Every day Andee has continued to improve her physical strength and even the clarity of her voice.  She enjoys listening to music and is very interested in dancing, which helps give her hope that she will be able to walk.  Her caretaker told me a story that one day a song came on the television and Andee tried to get up and dance. This gives us all a lot of hope.

Today, the right side of her body is improving and she can kick quite strongly with her right leg. She can lift  her left foot about 12 inches off the ground.  Her arms are developing more muscle as a result of the physical therapy.  Her circulation and stamina are also improving. Andee continues to take detoxification medicine.  All the medicinal plants used in Andee’s treatment are found in the Laotian jungle.  SEDA is looking for more funding to cultivate and harvest the medicinal plants for Andee and other patients.

Andee is very happy to have visitors and enjoys making new friends and both her caretakers and SEDA are optimistic about her health continuing to improve if she continues to receive treatment.
