Tomorrow we go to Bham, Children's Hospital, for Kara's surgery. The Doc is going to repair her muscles that make her palate close properly. At this point it is not closing properly and she can't push the air out to be able to pronouce certain consonants and words. It should be a same day surgery, but if they can't get her to do her functions, she has to stay over night. Last time she wouldn't eat, and so we couldn't leave. Last time they repaired her palatte. Last time she had only been in the country a couple of months and spoke no English. This time though she is further ahead of the game.
So if you think of it, say a prayer for Kara, mommy, and daddy.
Katy is staying with a member from the church. Zach is coming with us. That will be interesting. "Wild man does the hospital, preacher is never allowed back."

Prayers...
(o)
I will most definitely keep you all in my prayers.
God bless you all. May it go smoothly!
I'm praying for you tonight. Nothing harder than being at the hospital with a child. So much love and so much longing. And then of course there are the children one leaves home.
My daughter reminded me tonight that when our son had surgery she ran away from home. (25 years now) Not too far, just the end of the driveway. Still - I will pray for you and the fam - blessings.
Prayers that everything will go swiftly and smoothly.
Many prayers for Kara, you and family from Wadley.
Glad I checked in with you today.
((((God bless Kara))))
Best of luck, and I hope those new consonants will be put to good use!
Prayers for Kara, the family and the hospital staff who cares for her.
Oh my. I hope all went well. It seems that you just did this last month.
I just saw this post and prayed, before I realized the surgery was TODAY and it's behind her (and y'all)now. But I believe God (being outside of time) answers retroactive prayers, too. And I'm praying for a smooth recovery.
Prayers that all plumbing is working properly and Kara is resting well, and so is mommy!
Praying for all of you.
