We've Got A Surgery Date...
August 7th-next Friday! I can't believe it's so soon. We will go next Thursday for preop stuff and then get our exact surgery time that day-most likely early in the morning on Friday. We just ask that you pray that for these days leading up to surgery, Bennett gains as much weight as possible and stays strong and healthy- I feel he is beginning to show some small signs of heart failure, so it's time.

Hi Adrienne,
ReplyDeleteBennett is adorable. We love the pictures. The girls are getting so big! We'll keep you in our prayers. Good luck with his surgery.

Yikes! Praying here!
ReplyDeletePraying that all goes smoothly!!
ReplyDeleteWow, that is soon! But it will be over before you know it. HUGS!!! You can do this! Bennett will do wonderfully. :)
ReplyDeleteI will be praying for little Bennett - for strength and health leading up to the surgery and that the surgery will go well. I will also pray for peace for you and your husband as you prepare for Friday.
ReplyDeleteWe will be praying for a quick recovery for little Bennett. Our thoughts and prayers will be with you all next Friday. Liz
ReplyDeletePraying for all of you!! This is a stressful time. Be sure to spend lots more time snuggling than worrying. I know that you will put it into God's hands.
ReplyDeleteJust a few scripture passages that brought me comfort prior to Lily's surgery...
Isaiah 41:10
Fear not, for I am with you; be not dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you, yes, I will help you, I will uphold you with My righteous right hand.
Lamentations 2:19
Pour out your heart like water before the face of the Lord. Lift your hands toward Him for the life of your young children.
Philippians 4:6-7
Be anxious for nothing, but in everything by prayer and supplication, with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God; and the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus.
Wow, that was so quick. I will be praying for Bennett and hoping that all goes well as I am sure it will. Visit my "what I learned from ohs" before you go.
ReplyDeleteIn a way it's good to have the surgery early since you already think he is having signs of chf. As well afterward, you can just feel relief and enjoy your little baby!!!!
I will be thinking of and praying for Bennett as well as you all on friday. Good luck and I really hope you get to see a positive change immediately!!!
ReplyDeleteIt is soon - but then, it will all be fixed :) We'll be praying for you. We have an appt on Thursday w/ our cardiologist - hoping to get Max's surgery scheduled!
ReplyDeleteContinued prayers for you & Bennett, and prayers for the doctors & nurses who will be caring for him as well!
ReplyDeleteAdrienne,
ReplyDeleteWe will definitely be praying for B as well as for you as you prepare for this surgery! I will be praying for the dr.s as well. Know that GOD holds you all in his hands and that HE is our comfort!
I just got chills! Knowing that I too will travel this very path with Parker shortly..I am not ready, but also want it behind us! Adrienne, I will be praying for Bennett and your whole family. Anticipating God's best! Lara
ReplyDeleteI am a follower of your blog - found you on BBC. I just want to say that I will pray for Bennett during this next week. I will pray that he gains weight, remains strong during surgery and has a quick recovery. He is a beautiful little boy! Michelle
ReplyDeleteOh, sweet boy! I hope he does very well and the surgery and recovery go smoothly. You'll be in my prayers!
ReplyDeletePraying for you so much, HUGS
