I’m happy to report that the little girl, Amber Poplion, is having a very quick and excellent recovery.

The case has been diagnosed as Encephalitis, a brain inflamation, which usually has a very slow recovery process, but Amber is beating the odds on this one.

I visited Amber a few days ago and she was wide awake trying to dance to music from her church that was playing on the cd player.

At the time, she was still being held by her mom and could not really talk yet, but Ruthie has told me that on her last visit Amber was walking by herself and talking some.

I’ll bring my camera tonight when we go visit and give another progress report soon with a new pic. A spunky 8 year old.

I’m happy to report that the progress report for Amber Poplion is very good.

Amber finally got off of intubation this weekend and today was finally released from the ICU unit and is in a regular room in Children’s Hospital!

Ruthie and I visited her today and she was fairly alert and playing with her doll and even smiling. the doctors say they expect her to fully recover.
