We're home!

Abigail is home!!

The doctors told us that Abigail was strong enough to go home today so we did not waste any time and packed up and headed home as soon as we could! Abigail's strength has returned, perhaps not 100%, but enough that she will do fine at home.

Thanks to the many who have been praying for Abigail and for us during this difficult time. And eternal thanks to our Heavenly Father, who is good and gracious to us who do not deserve it! We are so happy to have our little girl home again...

Abigail will be back to CHOP, however, on June 8th (her 7 month old birthday) for surgery to re-shape the bones in her head (to fix her craniosynostosis). We would covet your prayers as that will be another ordeal, but we know that the Lord is good in all things and that Abigail is a strong little girl!

YAY!! What a blessed report! I found you off La Familia Garcia's blog and just wanted you to know that I am lifting your family up in prayer. Another blogger friend, thegrewecrew.blogspot.com, has a little girl that just had her cranial helmet removed. They are a God fearing couple and I just wanted you to know that our sweet Jesus has his hand all over the situation.

God bless you!!

Praise God! So glad to hear she's doing so much better, and will be praying for a good readjustment at home for you all, as well as for the upcoming surgery.

I am a friend of Geniene's...I just wanted to say that I admire the strength and faith you both have shown...it is truly a testimony and Abigail is lucky to have you as parents. May you continue to feel God's presence and protection upon your family.

Mary and Jeremy,
I am so thankful little Abigail is doing so much better. I've been keeping up with your blog to check on her and praying for you all. I pray that each day she grows stronger and stronger. Take good care.
