Praise God! And thank you all for bringing her to the Throne with us! There is, of course, still chance of infection and other issues as she recovers, but we're obviously past the most critical part.
We spent most of the afternoon with Grace before the procedure, since it was about 4 hours later than planned. Just before the surgical team came, she was wide awake and very alert-- more than we've seen her before. It was fun to watch her looking around at us and everything else! Here are a couple pictures.
Gracie is in the top of the gurney with the blanket draped over her-- they transported her about three blocks away to Children's hospital. |
Sticking her tongue out for the camera. She's already got an attitude! |
Thank you, Lord. NKL
ReplyDeleteMy gosh! She is gorgeous! I can't wait to see thier little faces without the tubes someday. If Isaac is any indication of the cuteness to come...we just won't be able to stand it. Praise the Lord for Gracie's surgery. You are in our thoughts and prayers continuously.

Thanks. We sure think each baby is gorgeous. I can hardly stand it! :) (Assuming you are Kelly from Uka?)

ReplyDeletePraise God! Thankful to hear things went so well. Praying for a smooth recovery with no infection. She's so beautiful - what a blessing to have all that time with her today.
ReplyDeleteWhat good news and how encouraging that immediately they can see a difference. God is good and how special that He gave you that sweet time together right before the surgery. Praising Him with you.
ReplyDeleteIn His grip.

You are so sweet! Remind us - do we know you? Thanks for praying and loving our babies either way!
DeleteAll praise be to our Heavenly Father for mercies shown! So thrilled to hear little Gracie came through her surgery with flying colors.....she is just adorable. Praying that Will, Marcie and David's eye tests went quickly and well today and that David got his PICC line in without trouble....and as always, praying for that little fighter Seth! Hoping Isaac continues to enjoy his new school!
ReplyDeleteI've been praying ALL day, and had my Bible study group pray, too! So glad to hear that our little Gracie had a successful surgery, and now can't wait to wean her off that vent! We want her back ASAP from CMC : ) Love those big eyes pictures! Praying for you both, and Will, David, Marcie and Seth, too
