hello everyone

Its been a while since we have written on the blog, I just want to say thank you to every body that has asked about Abelina and her progress. She is doing great and she is going to therapy 3 times a week. Claudia is doing gymnastics and she just had a meet last sunday and got a medal. And Angel's baseball season just ended but is starting again in the spring. Thank you again for keeping her in your prayers -
I will be sure to keep in touch

Kate said...: Hi Abelina!!

It is Kate, Byron, and Bailey (the beautiful blonde golden retriever)in San Francisco from California Pacific Medical Center. We think, and speak of you often. You blessed so many of us with your incredible presence. You my dear are the definition of inspiration, and I feel most fortunte to have been able to spend time getting to know you and to have cared for you.

I may be in Phoenix this spring and/or summer and would love to have the opportunity to see you.

All the best to you, Abelina!

Love, Kate

P.S. Jessica and Ethan miss you, too!; January 17, 2009 at 11:18 PM

HOW TO DONATE:

Donations to help Abelina and her children can be made to the following:

-Tax deductible donations can be made at http://www.ntafund.org/ by entering "Abelina Magana" in the patient's name section on the home page. NTAF will accept checks and credit card donations on Abelina's behalf. Again, donations to NTAF are tax deductible to the full extent of the law.

All donations will be used for in-home care, a wheel chair accessible van and home modifications.

Abelina is currently going through intense rehabiliation and living independently with the help of her 3 children. But they need more help.

Due to the horrific event on October 12th 2007, that changed the Magana family and friends forever. Abelina is now a quagraplegic with a severing of the spinal cord at her C-5 vertebrae. We were all told from the beginning that the odds were against her. If she survived there would be a 50/50 chance that she would not be around that first Christmas. We were told, if she lived that she would most likely live the remainder of her life in a hospital connected to a ventillator in a hospital bed. Now by the grace of God and Abelina's determination to live for her three babies, not only does she breathe on her own, she has movement in her right and left arm. She continues to defy medicine and like her current doctor, Dr. Ng said, "the hospital is learning from her, not the other way around."

Abelina is determined to make a difference and she will. However, due to her signigicant injuries as a quadraplegic and the enormous amount of daily assistance she requires, she is struggling financially. In addition, her kids are struggling emotionally and physically to keep up with her daily needs.

So if you would like to assist Abelina and her kids with their quest for a new beginning, please consider donating to the Magana Family Fund or with a tax deductible donation at http://www.ntafund.org/. Thank you!
