Praying...


Updating again:



Lara was readmitted to the hospital yesterday. She was having some extreme dizzy/fainting spells, and having intense nausea and pain with them, so they are admitted her for observation and tests. She has had some tests done, and we hoped she would be able to go home today, but the doctors have not come to any absolute conclusions on what is causing this so she is there for another night and continued testing. Please say a few more prayers for her and the doctors. Please pray they will be able to figure out what exactly is going on and how best to treat it as quickly as possible. Thank you all!




UPDATE:

Lara is still doing very well!! She is however in a lot of pain, and the after effects of the anesthesia is making her very nauseous...absolutely no fun, but pretty normal for post surgery recovery!






Thank you to everyone for your prayers!!

Tomorrow morning my step daughter will be having surgery..
.major surgery...brain surgery to be exact...

She's 17...not what most 17 year old's are dealing with, but we are thankful, it could be a lot worse, and we are already thanking the Lord for what He's going to do!

Lara...is definitely the best step daughter anyone could ask for, and I am proud to be a part of her life.




This is what she looked like when I met her...



and this is her now...




she even looks a bit like her little sister...




And a lot like her daddy....





And she dances...


I mean really dances....



She's beautiful...



and goofy....



And really, really strong...no picture can depict that...but if you meet her you know...


and hopefully will be pain free soon...Love you La!!

  6. I'm glad she did well with the surgery, but sorry the after affects are getting to her. :( I hope that part goes by quickly and she recovers completely! What a hard thing for such a young woman to go through. She is very beautiful too, loved all the pics.
