conversation with the good lord above

Annabella s surgery is only one week and 3 days away. :( I know that god will be there with her in that surgery room as well as leading those hands of her Dr hirsch. I know that she is going to be ok. But it is still heart breaking to see your little girl go through it all. every poke and every cry , every surgery and every Pain . I keep trying to be strong. but when I sit there and stare at such a beautiful little girl and think of all the pain the MY LITTLE PRINCESS is going through I start to ask WHY , WHY HER , WHY ME , WHY PARKER, WHY HER, WHY MY BABY GIRL!!!!!!!!!!!! I do know that there is a reason and I do know that I will never know WHY . But In God I trust that he will make his child well. As I was driving down the road the other night with this little angel in the back seat I just couldnt stop crying So I started to talk to the great lord above and through all of what was said is no matter what happens this is my baby girl but this is Gods child she will be ok , she will be heeled.. God please know I may ask why alot but I do not doubt you , Thank you and I know I am blessed to have My baby girl !

4 weeks after surgery seen cardiologist today!

Annabella is doing so well she is not in anymore pain.. Well unless she sneezes or got the hiccups. :( But other then that she is pain free.. Back to the HAPPY baby girl that she is. Today she went to the cardiologist appt and he said everything looked good that he will see us in a month unless something is wrong that we think we need seen sooner. He said that on oct 6th when that appt is we will set a date for late oct first of nov. for her second surgery. Until then our job is to keep her HEALTHY!!!! So please if you are going to come aroung her wash your hands, dont smoke before or while around her. If you are sick please wait until a few days after you are better to come by her. :) And our other job before her next surgery is to get her to GAIN WEIGHT!!!! which we have had a little problems doing lately, but she is getting there. Well keep those prayers going... THANK YOU!
