Upcoming surgery

Hooray! Lyla's made it over 10 lbs which is what her doctors were hoping for before surgery. Her heart surgery is scheduled for August 5th! Thanks to everyone already for your prayers, faith, fasting, well wishes, offering of help with the kids etc. It means so much to us! We feel of your love and comfort for our little Lyla.

Some things we look forward to hopefully being gone after her heart is repaired are her continuous sweating, swollen liver, over-circulating too much fluid into her lungs, her being completely exhausted and asleep after finishing a 3 oz bottle, double calorie formula, and occasionally her hands and mouth turning purple or blue! Despite it all she has been our happiest, best baby. For her sake it will be nice for her to be well!
