They were extremely uncomfortable... but once they were removed, her smile returned. So I am praying for a time when it may be removed from Ash to be soon. I am sure it will help her to be comforted. Praying also for your time and testimony there and for a quick and lasting return home with Ash.

As always, the laughs, tears, and things we share are priceless memories. I am praying that today is the BIG day to get the tube out, and you move back downstairs. I pray that you both had a good night sleep, and that the count down has begun for her to be at a safe place, and able to manage everything else at home. I also pray for favor in the eyes and hearts of the doctors as you talk to them about your wishes.

Ashley has taught me to look at the every day miracles in her ups and downs. That she is here fighting each moment is a miracle, her breathing without assistance is a miracle, no bowel rejection and continued healing also a miracle. And the joy she will feel to see the family next week,Wow, that is going to make her smile for sure. This little girl deserves some BIG JOY and HAPPINESS for her big spirit. And you do too Trish, and my prayers continue for all good things to come. I hope the chest tube can come out today too. Jesus loves you so much. Me too.<BR/><BR/>Love, Laurie in Ca.Laurie in Ca.https://www.blogger.com/profile/15599832324966859946noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33735305.post-3454543542142138382007-10-20T08:47:00.000-05:002007-10-20T08:47:00.000-05:00Praying for sleepy nights, smiley days, and health...Praying for sleepy nights, smiley days, and healthy inside and outs!

Just think what she could accomplish if she didn't have to spend so much energy being uncomfortable with it! :) I'll be gone tonight and part of tomorrow, but will be praying for y'all while I'm gone.

But I hate it when she is just having so much discomfort.<BR/><BR/>Thank you all your posts that have included pictures and videos. Wow, that is just great and I join my heart with many others when I tell you that we are always here throughout all the beautiful moments and days, but we are also here for all the times spent in the valley of despair. <BR/>Ashley has become so very special to us and our hearts hurt as we anxiously wait for a word that lets us know what the doctors have said is the source of her problem so we pray, we cry, we pray, we wait, we cry and keep on waiting and praying. When the words came "no rejection" we thanked HIM for being so gracious, we cried, we praised Him and we cried because our hearts were filled with such joy. <BR/><BR/>So here's praying for a much better tomorrow but also thanking Him for each precious day .<BR/>Much love and prayers~~~JanieceAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33735305.post-8265022661862559142007-10-19T23:58:00.000-05:002007-10-19T23:58:00.000-05:00I am so glad you had at least some brief moments o...I am so glad you had at least some brief moments of play and I pray you will both get some sleep tonight.
