Scheduled Surgery

Kyara is scheduled to have the gastric pull-up on Monday, November 3. We are planning on driving up to Michigan on Friday, Oct. 31 after the girls do some trick-or-treating (there are priorities!) She will be admitted on Nov. 2 and do all the pre-op work. As long as Kyara is stable, Gunars, Skylar, and my dad will stay for the surgery and head back home on Nov. 4. My mom, Kassey, and I will stay up there for the duration. We have reservations at the U of Michigan Holiday Inn, and we are hoping to get in the Ronald McDonald House as soon as possible. It is first come, first serve kind of deal, so we will see if there is a vacancy when we get there.

After so much talk and discussion about the surgery, I can't believe it is only a week away. I am excited and nervous at the same time! I am ready for my baby to be able to eat again!

You don't know me, but Lana forwarded your emails to our group when Kyara was first injured so we could pray. I've added your blog to the list of ones that I read regularly so I can know how to pray. So glad to hear Kyara will be able to eat soon!!

Our sunday school class in Lake Park, GA has been praying for you for a while and we will continue to do so. We are praying that God will guide the surgeon's hands, that you will have a quick recovery, that the surgery will be a complete success, and that all the family's needs will be met during this time! In His love, Kristal
