Here we go again.....off to surgery tomorrow, for the third time in seven weeks......and MAYBE this will be time we actually leave with a repaired palate and not a cancelled surgery.  Yes, I am feeling a little crazy today!!!! Lily had a runny nose yesterday just one little time, and I was in panic mode.....with an open palate, she does that sometimes, for no reason, and after one swipe, it was gone and didn't come back. So, I am sure she is okay, but it has been a long haul to get through seven weeks healthy. Of course, that wasn't my doing at all......that is so totally God....how could any family get through this double flu season and not be sick for seven weeks???
Deo Gratias!!
I am sorry if I sound like a broken record.....but if you could pray for great pain control, safe anesthesia, (no trickiness, like bronchospasms that make her quit breathing  ) a successful surgery, safe travel, and strength and perseverance for all of us......I would so, so appreciate it. Miss Lily will have arm restraints on for 3-4 weeks.....so hard when you are two and can't move your arms easily.....she isn't going to be a happy girl. Also, for the BEST anesthesiologist for Lily to be on her case tomorrow.
I'll update through someone later tomorrow.....her surgery is first up in the morning, (she is priority, since they cancelled her last time due to the emergency liver transplant, they assured me she WILL get done tomorrow!) Scheduled time is 7:30AM EST.
Thanks, Friends. You all are always in my prayers.

I continue to uphold Lily, you, and your family in prayer. May the comfort, consolation, and power of Holy Spirit be with you today and in the upcoming weeks of recovery.

Continuing to pray for Lily. So glad she is first up - that usually means the best shift for the longest time :)! And continued prayers through the 2 - 3 weeks of arm restraints. I cannot even imagine that - or how you keep a 2 yo entertained in those circumstances.
BTW her picture is adorable on the blog with the doll you made (impressive!)
Anyways - definitely prayers.
