Thank you for the update. Every time I get on the bump I look to see if you posted anything. Always hopping for some good news. I hope time flies for you guys and Cindy improves with every passing day so that she can go home. As for your fiancé... What he did is unforgivable and he deserves every last second behind the bars. I don't care how young or old you are you just don't harm a little innocent being. He does not deserve you guys.
So glad she is doing well! Abuse of any kind to a child is never forgivable, it shows a true inner lack of control and regard for others that is truly evil.
Just catching up on the updates - @aleecats I am SOOOOO glad that Cindy is doing so well! What a miraculous little girl you have!! I think she takes after her mommy. What a model of strength and courage you are for her!!! I am sure your heart must be in tatters after all of these revelations about your (former) fiancé. I can't imagine this specific scenario, but I know the sinking heart feeling of discovering so many lies. Know that eventually your heart will heal, and you and Cindy will be so much better without him in your lives. I am confident that joy and love are in your futures!
Thank you for the updates. So good to hear that Cindy is continuing to do well. As many of the other women have said - you are an amazing mom. I can't imagine what you are going through but it so incredible to see how you are doing what is best for you and your daughter. You will continue to be in my prayers!!
I am so sorry for all you and baby Cindy have been through! I can't even imagine how hard this must be for you and the feelings you are going through, between worrying about your sweet baby girl and the betrayal and anger towards her father. You are such a strong woman, Cindy is lucky to have you for her mother. I am so glad she is doing better. I pray you all recover from this. Stay strong @aleecats you're both in my thoughts and prayers.
Hey everyone another update! So we find out tomorrow how long she'll be in rehab, but we're gonna try and push to take her home soon, medically she doesn't need to be here and there's an intensive out patient rehab center closer to home for us. I just think the best thing for her right now is routine but she can't have that here because they wake her up and bother her every 30 minuets for something or another. Thank you all for your continual support and prayer! It means so much
Thank you so much for keeping us in the loop. I think about you all the time and it makes me so happy to hear that things are only getting better. I will continue sending those hopeful and healing vibes your way
She's so precious, so glad to see her looking so alert and awake. What are they saying re development etc! I know it sounded bad before but has anything changed?
So that's her. She's only got the brace for 2 more weeks. Unfortunately DCFS won't let us take her home quiet yet, so they're saying 2 1/2 more weeks. But that's fine she'll get the therapy she needs. I just don't know how much more mentally or emotionally I can take being away from home and my family; I'm hitting a breaking point and being alone sends me into an emotional breakdown (I've been having 2 panic attacks almost daily).... Praying she'll be home sooner rather than later.
kdoak2015 they told me she may never wake up, she may never open her eyes, she may never breath on her own or eat from a bottle. So far she's beaten all the odds and she's slowly going back to her old self. She'll for sure have some sort of disabliaty but we won't know until much later in her life.
I'm glad to see her alert also! I can't even imagine the stress you are under. If you can, take some time for yourself and do some self-care, whatever you do to relax. I think you said you are far from family, but I hope you have someone to talk to, at least on the phone. All of us here are rooting for you! Thanks for the updates! I'll continue to think of you and Cindy.
She is so beautiful and has cheeks just like my LO!!!!!!! Love her!!! So happy to see her looking so bright eyed. I can't imagine the stress you're under, just hang in there. You are doing amazing. She gets her strength from you!
@aleecatsCindy certainly feels your love. Look how far she has come! She's so beautiful, seeing her smile warms my heart. Thank you for sharing her with us. Where are you located? Maybe one of us can help?
I'm crying! My DH cried when I showed him her photo too. She is beautiful and looks happy, alert and peaceful. I'm so happy for you that she's beating the odds already! What a strong little fighter you have!!
She is so beautiful!!! Look at those bright eyes! I hope you don't think it's weird that so many of us are in love with her. Your story has touched all of us and we keep you both in our minds and hearts every single day. Even though the doctors say otherwise, I'm still hoping for a full recovery. Miracles happen all the time.
Her little face melted my heart!! You made a beautiful little fighter momma and it has made my heart swell every time you've brought good news!! Please keep the updates coming. Much love to you and baby Cindy!
What a absolutely stunning baby girl you have @aleecats. Can't imagine how lonely you must be feeling, I'm sure i speak for everyone when I say that we are all here to speak too anytime, I know we are not family but we are all here to listen. You have been so strong through this, just keep going a little longer you can do it. Thinking of you and cindy always
She is absolutely beautiful! I'm so proud of her for overcoming it all and you for being such a great mom!! I hope the next two weeks fly by so you can take her home!!
Continued thoughts and prayers for you and baby Cindy! She's a beautiful girl and very lucky to have such a strong mother, but remember to care for yourself too, Cindy needs you strong!
Also, just wondering if there's been any update on the gofundme account? I would love to donate if that's something that's been approved by @aleecats.

@aleecats, DH, our families and myself continue to pray for you and Cindy. I cried tears of joy when I saw her picture. She looks so alert! We wish Cindy a speedy recovery and that Cindy continues to beat the odds. You are such a strong woman and even though I don't know you, I admire your strength. Hang in there mama! Wish you the best for you and Cindy!
I just want to say that I haven't been on here in months but I just read through all 14 pages of love that has been sent to you and wanted to add one more! So glad to read that sweet Cindy is doing so much better than expected. Stay strong, mama!

I hope time flies for you guys and Cindy improves with every passing day so that she can go home.
