Prayers for el bell!

A week from today (aug 6th), ellie will be headed to children's hospital for her 2nd surgery. We are getting tubes put in her ears since we are battling our 9th ear infection right now. Breath. It's been a constant struggle in our house really since she came home from the nicu. She is a tough little love though. I tell ya, she just does what she has too. Today I got the call for her prep work, asking all her medical questions....and memory of her headed down the OR hallway for her g-tube surgery all came flooding back to me. Breath. Breath. Just to know your baby girl will be in the care of someone else and she will be cut, put to sleep, the whole 9 yards...eeeeee......i am learning how to trust you more LORD! I know tubes will be a GREAT thing for her and hopefully really help her ears to drain fluid and keep us out of the docs office so much with ear infections. Bless her little heart. So please pray for her to recovery quickly and have a quick easy time. They will also be looking down her throat while she is already under just to take another look at her throat now that she's older just to make sure everything is in tact. She hasn't had this done since the nicu and we are hoping maybe for a little more info to understand her swallowing issues. Again, and again....I thank u for praying for our sweet little one!
