On Monday morning at 7:30 our precious Molly will have her scoliosis surgery. We will be heading to Cincinnati Children's on Sunday night for pre op observation and most likely be in the hospital 7-10 days.
We are prepared...We believe in our strong girl and we have such faith that God will be with her, with Dr. Jain as he operates and with the follow up care of the nurses but...we are her parents...
Parents who have loved her for 2 years.
Parents who paper chased for one year to bring her home.
Parents who traveled 1/2 way around the world to meet her.
Parents who feel like she has always been a part of our family.
Parents who would do anything for her.
Parents who love her unconditionally.
Parents who know the "path" of being her mom and dad will not be easy
BUT she is ours and a gift from our Almighty Creator and we love her.
Which in our human nature we do worry...
Please join us in prayer for:
wisdom and skilled hands for Dr. Jain
compassionate nurses during follow up care
Molly to be easily weaned off ventilator after surgery
pain tolerance for her in the days and weeks following surgery
surgery to be successful
siblings of Molly who will be home with Grandma
that our anxieties will be cast on Him
Give all your worries to him, because he cares for you.
1Peter5:7
We will be praying for Molly and your family.

Beautiful post. Peace that surpasses all understanding....
ReplyDeletePlease tell Molly that Mrs. Kenney is praying, praying, praying! Praying for all of you, as I know how hard it is to wait for your child during a long surgery, and to watch her in recovery after. It's not easy, but I know your faith and strength will bring you through. Please keep the posts coming!
ReplyDeletePraying in C'ville for all of you. Thanks for sharing your journey with us.
ReplyDeleteI've been on vacation and just now got caught up! Praying for Ms. Molly and will continue to lift her up over the following days as she recovers! God bless!
