Our Debt

I'm now connected with several families of children with leukodystrophy. In conversations with them, I had heard several of them talk about improvements as a result of chiropractic care. With a new mission in mind, I began seeking to learn more and found that our insurance doesn't cover chiropractic in any situations.  For a few weeks I was disheartened, and wished we could at least TRY chiropractic, but at full price that simply wasn't realistically going to happen.

But then I remembered that over at the Deal house we keep knocking on closed doors until they open, and so with knowledge that this had helped not only delay regression, but also made improvements in other children with leukodystrophy, I began researching chiropractors certified in pediatric care in the area. I came across United Wellness in Herndon with phenomenal reviews (because if we're going to look into any addition to Adelyn's care, it's also got to be the best! ;). I shared Adelyn's story with them and agreed to meet in person to talk more.

I walked nervously into the building holding the most precious thing I own, and found that I was meeting with the director, a chiropractor, and an acupuncturist. They asked me questions about Adelyn, and allowed me to talk openly about her condition and symptoms, and my goals for her being there.

Then they told me they had spoken with the owner, and he had already decided they would provide comprehensive care for Adelyn completely free of charge - not only chiropractic, but infant acupuncture as well.  Her story had touched them and they wanted to be a part of her care team in continuing to support her and open doors of possibility.

The number of people we will be forever indebted to seems to grow exponentially each day, and we are floored by the love, kindness, and compassion we have been shown. I've never been more grateful for a growing debt, because this sweet girl is worth every thank you I'll never be able to repay.
