Out and About

Last Saturday night, not quite three weeks since her back surgery, Ashley was strong enough to attend the spring performance of UVA's Rhapsody Dance Ensemble. She's been a member since her first year at UVA, joining others who wanted to continue dancing while attending college. Many lasting friendships were forged at Rhapsody and it was great to see her celebrate with her pals. It was her first night outside a hospital since the end of March (we think - unless she's been sneaking off to the Corner without telling us). We were all pleased to see she's been paying attention during her PT sessions and moved through the labyrinths at Old Cabell Hall easily...easily enough to join her fellow fourth-years onstage for the final curtain and some well-deserved appreciation from her fellow dancers and the audience.
