Still in the ICU

By Kendra | January 18, 2010

Our sweet girl is still being fed through a tube, breathing shallowly (it hurts to breathe after major abdominal surgery!), but walking a few steps to the door and back, whisper talking, and sucking on blue popsicles that make the new nurses a little shocked until they realize the real reason for her blue lips :)

My posts for this week are on auto pilot, so they’ll continue to go up.  But if you think of us, please pray for our still-recovering daughter, our scattered hither-and-yon children, and my husband and I who will be like two ships passing in the night all week long.

Love you all!

    Praying for you and yours, Kendra. Poor little mite. I do hope she perks up soon. More opportunity to rest in Him, huh?

    In Him

    Oh Kendra, Praying your little girl will recover quickly! We had friends with their 6 yr old burst his appendix a couple of weeks ago, he is doing much better already.
