EmmaKate went in for her surgery this morning. When the doctors got in there, they found that the work was already done! The Lord had gone before them and performed the bypass! The surgeon could not find any constriction. Her blood pressure was great on both sides of the aorta. They went ahead and closed the flap (PDA - common occurance when the bypass to the mother's circulation system does not close.)
She did great! Her 5-7 day hospital stay looks like it will now be 2 days. Plus, she was able to have a specialist perform the PDA surgery, which is normally done by a non-specialist.... and she had the PDA surgery much younger than she normally would have if the bypass did not seem to be needed. So she should start to grow now!
Thanks be to the God who can do more than we could ever ask for or even imagine!

Praise God! I am crying as I respond to the good news. Nothing is impossible with God. Why do we (I) doubt what HE can do? What a mighty and gracious God we serve. I can't wait to see EmmaKate start growing. I pray she grows in stature and in the grace and knowledge of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ.
Thanks, Ruth, for sharing that. I was so sad for all of you after talking the other night, and prayed a lot for her, even though I wasn't even praying for a miracle. What little faith I have to not even ask such things from such a Big God!
Love, Keri
