Celebrating Ricki's Recovery

It was an amazing day today! It was fun to celebrate with the doctors Ricki's miraculous recovery! I found myself fighting back the tears several times during the appointments. It means so much to have NF2 doctors that care so much.  Dr. Belzburg kept reminding Ricki they were there for her....Dr. Blakeley kept reminding Ricki it was her job to worry about the NF2 stuff...and all Ricki was to worry about was getting better and her normal life stuff. Dr Yang was humble and just shrugged his shoulders and said it wasn't a big deal when we expressed our appreciation. We had a chance to visit our favorite places- the koi fish pond and the statue of Christ, in between Ricki's appointments. Johns Hopkins has been a place of healing for Ricki and we will be forever grateful.
