Virginia Surgery Update!

Yesterday Virginia had her surgery to remove a juvenile melanoma on her back. She did amazing!!! We all went downtown together and Jay went back with Virginia Grace to have the procedure while Anli and I stayed in the waiting room (Jay has always insisted that he go back for all their doctor or urgent care situations...what a wonderful daddy they have!).

Within an hour or less she was coming back out to see us...without a tear! Jay said she was awesome and the doctor said that there hadn't been another child (except her own) that had ever done as well as Virginia Grace.

We know that all this is because of the great mercy and grace from our loving God. We also know that it is because of the prayers that were prayed on our behalf. We are so blessed to have gotten emails, calls, and more emails about her yesterday from so very many people. Thanks to those who not only prayed but encouraged us also. It is so precious to have others lifting us up.



Right now, she is doing well. She is a little sore, but that is to be expected for a few days. We wait about a week for the results to know whether they got it all or not. Please continue to pray that this will be her only procedure and that they are confident they got it all.



I will be posting later about the Grand Prix that we participated in with out church Awana group this Saturday. It was a blast!!
