Hi Friends,

Miss Lily is having a surgery on Thursday. We are finally in the home stretch! They are closing her trach stoma (hole) that has been there since she was a few days old.....and now almost four years later, it is getting closed. She’ll be in overnight, and we hope will go home early the next day. Within a few days, she should be almost back to her spunky little self.

I would appreciate your prayers for a smooth anesthesia, quick recovery....and many happy trips to the beach starting about a week later....something Lily has never done, play in the sand and be near

large bodies of water! Woohooo!!! Summer might actually be FUN
this year!!

Update: Lily did great-- sitting up in bed, watching Netflix at the bedside computer, charming everyone that comes her way. Deo Gratias, God is Good!!! Thanks, once again, for keeping our sweet Lily girl close to your heart in prayer!

Thanks so much!!
