PRAYER NEEDED FOR A FRIEND

This blog was initially intended just for family who live far away to keep up with Regan and Riley. It has slowly become a way to keep up with others and even those I don't know, HA! I am going to take advantage of all you blog stalkers out there. You know who you are! Please read about my sweet friend Carissa and join me in prayer for her and her family:

Before we moved, Carissa lived right across the street from us. We got to know each other better as our daughters got big enough to play together. She is a great mom and has the cutest little girl Kaitlyn who my girls LOVE to play with. She is expecting another little girl in May who she is naming Avery. Over the last few months she has gone through quite a lot with little Avery. In the ultrasound they found a problem that they wanted to check closer. They found that Avery has a hernia in her diaphragm that has allowed her stomach to push up into the chest cavity. That caused concern about the heart's development so the ran more tests last week. The doctors found a heart defect that will require surgery as well as the hernia and is very serious.

PLEASE PRAY FOR CARISSA AND BABY AVERY! They will be going to Children's every month to meet with different Dr's and the surgeons. She knows she will deliver there at Children's and will be there for quite a while. She has told me that finding out people are praying for her is something that really encourages her. Please tell your church groups, family members and friends to pray with us! Feel free to leave messages for her here!


Regan, Kaitlyn, and Riley BFF's!
