On November 4th, our lives were changed forever.
Our daughter Lydia was diagnosed with septesemia and meningitis cause by strep pneumo. She spent many days in ICU. Due to complications from bacterial meningitis, she developed hydrocephalus and has had to go under numerous neuro surgeries.
We hope to eventually be on the road to recovery and transfer to an inpatient rehabilitation facility. Prior to her illness, Lydia was a super active 10 month old who loved to play with her toys and was consistently crawling and standing. She was the happiest girl around. We would love to give Lydia the best chance she can have to live her best life, but this will take intensive inpatient and outpatient therapy.

Lydia had G-Tube surgery last Wednesday and continues to make strides toward discharge to inpatient rehab. We are currently waiting to see if she can recieve authorization to go to AI DuPont in Delaware, so I could be closer to family during her time in rehab.

HI! My name is Joanne Krieger, and I am a coworker (but more so a friend) of Diana Doody. I have heard of your little girl\'s journey and I pray for her daily. I know that we do not know eachother, but if you need anything at all, please do not hesitate to ask. (Diana knows how to find me). I am praying for strength, courage and God\'s love to shine upon you all during this time and always. May God bless your family.

We pray for Lydia and her family without ceasing. We have a vision of her walking and talking like any normal toddler. We are grateful to have the opportunity to help with her expenses..
