DAY 12

Faith is in surgery again. The leaking is still out of control, they need to know the source of the air in the stomach and her intestines have started to come visibly come out of the first abdominal surgery incision. They are going in there to put them back inside and explore to hopefully find source of these problems. Of course, when we got here her blood pressure numbers, oxygen and all the rest of her numbers we looking very positive, so this will be a set-back. With the sepsis, this adds to all of her risks. Need lots of prayers today and for Faith to continue to be the strong little fighter she is.

I'll update you later when we know how things went. Obviously, things will be a bit crazy when they are complete, but I will try my best to fill you in as soon as I can.

  2. Oh Shelly-just reading through takes me back to the scary and almost never ending roller coaster we too were on with our little angel. You and your husband just have to continue to believe and fight, even when you feel there's nothing left in your body. We are sending lots of good thought and prayers your way for your family and your beautiful daughter.

We will pass your story onto our other faithful friends so you all can be included in their prayers as well. We haven't stopped thinking about you and your family. Keep strong! Heart Hugs!

  8. Everyone here at Faith's school has been praying daily. Teachers, Staff, & all parents ask me daily how is Faith. "We are all praying at our house for her", said one parent.Faith's classmates have made her a great big get well card. We would like her to have it. Is there some how we could bring it to her or leave it at your house Shelly? We think Faith and your family will enjoy it. Again our prayers and thoughts are with you. I will wait to here from you.
    Love always,
    Erica (Faith's Teacher)

  9. Erica - that would be lovely to get that card. I KNOW we would enjoy it and I am sure it would help Faith with her fight to recover. She loves all of you so much. Call my cell and we can figure out how to get it here. Shelly
