Hurray!!!!!

Well so far so good without the oxygen!!!!! I never, never,never expected this. I did think it would help her out, but certainly never thought this much. I still don't believe it! I keep looking down around the couch corners waiting for her to say "stuck, stuck." I can actually pick her up and go downstairs, outside, anywhere we want!!!! I feel like I am in a dream. So my thanks to all of you who prayed and please keep it up. We have a follow up appointment at 1:30 today with surgery. Can you believe it was one week ago already? She acts like nothing even happened. Kids sure are resilient!!!

I never doubted for a moment God would answer all of our prayers. Continue to walk by faith and not by sight, and you will be rewarded every time. So glad all is well. Love, Kelly

No way!! I can't belive it!
She looks so different in all the pictures..I'm so used to seeing her with her oxygen. I can't even begin to imagine how different this would be for you, not having to worry about the tubing, etc. She is such a miracle and I am positive she has more in store for us. I will keep praying!
Nice battle scar! That's gonna make a great story when she gets older. What a tough little girl you have.
love, erin
