Sunday update

For those of you who haven't heard, Abby is having the value surgery Monday morning around 8 a.m. Eastern. It's a fairly routine procedure for premature babies, but, as with any surgery, there is risk.

Everything else is looking good. Her vital signs are stable and encouraging, and she seemed more content today than she had before. It's likely the surgery will set her back for a few days, but, after that, things should be looking up.

It was great to worship with our brothers and sisters in Christ again today. The F&K family has been taking care of us lately, with a lot of emotional and other support. One of the brothers is giving us an oldish car for Katrina to be able to go visit Abby when I'm at work, and people are taking turns preparing meals for us for a few weeks.

In short, we've been quite blessed all around in the last few weeks. Abby still has a long road ahead, but things are looking good.

Thank you to everyone who has been supporting us in any way, from prayers and cards to meals and cars.

I will post updates after the surgery as soon as I can, but it might be later in the day or evening before I can do so.
