This week has been particularly tough for Abby as she deals with intense pain and exhaustion, which affect her sleep and overall mood.

During today's episode, we'll cover some hopeful news: we've finally found a lawyer who's ready to listen and help us navigate the complex legal battle ahead. I’ll also discuss a recent development that's hard to accept—the executive responsible for overseeing the initial mishandling of Abby’s care has received a significant promotion within the healthcare system.
Additionally, I’ve taken steps to advocate for Abby on a broader scale by filing a formal complaint with a government agency dedicated to protecting children's rights. The response has been promising, and it feels like we're finally being heard, but honestly time will tell.
Abby’s week was marked by moments of severe discomfort, needing her machine more frequently and relying on pain medication to get through the night. In one of the more poignant moments, Abby asked me to record a song by her favorite artist, Cooper Alan. It's a song she holds close to her heart, symbolizing her fears but also her wishes for the future.
