On the other side of the surgery

     Last week at this time we were in the hospital room, just relaxing as Maggie came fully out of the anesthesia. By the end of the night she was riding in the wagon, talking as if nothing happened. Crazy. We are so grateful for Dr. McLanahan and his team!
     One week later she is off all meds and only seems uncomfortable after naps, but even that is maybe twenty minutes of "hold you" time. Her first follow-up appointment is next Friday. 
     Matt and I were talking today about how we just can't imagine our family without her! We are so glad God changed our hearts.

Wanting her sister to give her ducks back.

First hay ride.

  1. Hi, my family is new to Forest Hill. Today I was at the meeting about the student mission trips to Haiti. Matt mentioned that you had created a blog so I felt compelled to google it. Now I know why. My son Dylan, 14, had a shunt placed when he was a baby. VERY scary time for us. So when I read about your sweet Maggie, it all came back. By the way, Dylan never had any further complications. I pray the same for Maggie
