A Little Worried

IMG_0946 I'm cleaning up baby puke and I'm worried about what life will be like a few weeks from now. On March 24, Allie will have surgery. She has cerebral palsy and brain damage brought on by an injury about a year and a half ago. Her bones are growing faster than her muscles and this is causing her hips to migrate out of joint. In fact, instead of her hips being a round socket, they are more of a flat surface. So the joints need to be reshaped and her hips repositioned. Along with that, she has to have some leg muscles lengthened.

After the surgery is over, she'll be in a cast from her waist down for six weeks. She'll spend three days in the hospital and then come home. We are unbelievably anxious about what life will be like for Allie and us. Will you please pray?

Prayer request on Susan's blog

Hey, I have just been reading all the Allie post and catching up, haven't read your blog in a while. BUT know that I have prayed for Allie and wondered how you all were doing. I know I only "know" your family via here, in blog world, but I would randomly think about Allie and say a quick prayer.

Praying now for a quick recovery from Surgery.

God bless.
