GiGi is doing beautifully today... as she turns 4 weeks old! She's very alert and curious, and once again reaching for her tubes... she's got spunk! After not being able to interact with her very much following her ventricular tap Thursday, I was so happy to be able to hold her again and feed her a bottle! She seems to have bounced-back and is gaining weight well ...3lbs, 6oz today!

Since her ventricular tap Thursday, we received news from her neurosurgeon that the fluid in her brain is returning quickly. He believes she has canal stenosis, disabling the flow of cerebralspinal fluid from her ventricles. He anticipates the need for a shunt placement very soon. Although we are preparing for this and thankful this technology exists to help her, we continue to pray faithfully for a miracle... for the Lord's healing & sparing from this surgery.

Well, many have assured us that this would be a roller-coaster ride..... it now surely is! I'm so glad God is at the controls of this ride!!!

Once again, we had an enotional morning after hearing the news, but His word again spoke the truth to me! Friends shared Romans 4:17 and Acts 2:25 and Mark 11:23 yesterday, and Psalms 145...... Thank you ladies! God is so loving and faithful! He IS at my right hand, leading us. His angels ARE with GiGi, ministering to her right now! He WILL deliver her! Praise be to Him!

Drew and I keep hearing so many voices (numerous physicians, articles, test results).... it gets very confusing and heavy. I was so thankful for God's timing when hearing the song "Voice of Truth" by Casting Crowns Friday on the radio. I've heard it so many times, but every word sunk into my heart at that moment as I tried to sort through it all, "Out of all the voices calling out to me, I will chose to listen and believe the voice of truth." We will rely on His word...His truth... His promises and claim them for GiGi! Thank you for your prayers!
