Upcoming Appointment...

We humbly ask for your prayers for our appointment this coming Thursday, February 16. We have our second echocardiogram with the cardiothoracic specialist to determine where Kenzie stands in terms of her heart abnormalities. The last time we met with this doctor, she was 20 weeks old and it was at this point that he discovered her Pulmonary Atresia. At that time she was too little to determine how things would look down the road.  They didn’t know how much fluid build-up she would have, how large her heart would get, or whether or not her valve situation would worsen or stay the same. Now that she’s 30 weeks, they are going to take an in-depth look to re-assess her heart and determine a plan of action for how to address what they find. We are praying with all that is within us that she would be completely healed. Imagine what a shock that would be to the doctors! But if not completely, we’re praying that they find that her pulmonary valve would be somewhat functional to allow some blood flow through to her lungs. We’re also praying for wisdom for the doctor who will be assessing her situation and for peace and strength to handle whatever news we are given. As always, we can’t thank you enough for your love and prayers towards us and our precious baby girl!

  1. We've still been praying continually each day, and I will start to pray for those specific items this week. I will also pray that whatever news comes, God may be ever present and the devil no where to be found! :) Lots of love.

  2. We love you guys, and know that God has a perfect plan. We are praying for your faith, your strength, and Kenzie's healing. You both have already been such an incredible example in how you have handled such a tough situation, and how you have used it to be wonderful witnesses for Christ. Take care, and know that you are covered in prayer! XOXO

    Love, Zach and Pauline
