Abby Continues to Amaze Us.





Hi everyone, just a short note to let you all know that we are all fine and Abby continues to get better each day.  She has met a new friend, her name is Kai Ping and she is 3 1/2..  She was adobted from china about a year ago and has had the same surgery as Abby.  We are having some struggles adapting to the colostomy bag, but we will get there.  We meet with Dr. Levitt tomorrow for her first follow-up visit.  We are still hopeful that he will release her to come home next Friday.  
Abby received a wonderful surprise from her cousin Misty today.  Thank you so much Misty, she is loving it (see the pictures).  Please send us your email address again, we seemed to have lost it in the computer shuffle we recently went through.
Thank you all for the calls and emails.  Please continue to pray for our precious little girl.

Aww! She looks the picture of health! So glad she's doing better! I know the colosotomy bag isn't fun (mother in law had one), but once you do it a few times, it does get easier. And it's only for a short time, so that's good!

So glad she enjoyed her surprise! :) It was nice to be able to do something for her to sort of welcome her to the family & cheer her up some. Hugs to all of you, and you can email me at:

She is looking wonderful. So glad everything is going so well. We want to send her a birthday surprise and we're still waiting to hear from y'all as to exactly where to send it. If it goes directly to the Ronald McDonald House in Cincinatti with her name and y'alls will it get to her?

Waiting to hear so please email us.

Love to all and hugs and kisses.
