To those affected by a heart defect:

Haven's Story

Weekend Update

April 29, 2007 at 9:12 pm by Mom & Dad

Haven had a great weekend.  Not only did dialysis continue to fare well, but she enjoyed several visitors, too.  Her feet and hands are back to their long and slender selves, and her beautiful eyes have opened up and are looking all around.  The dialysis appears to be working from her extremities inward, so this week we’re hoping to make even more progress getting Haven back to normal Haven size.  All three of us are grateful for your thoughts, prayers, support, and encouragement.  This certainly would be harder without you, and we thank our loving and most gracious Lord each and every day for you and the edification we receive from you.

    Jeremy & Alison,
    I’m so glad the dialysis has gone so well over the past couple of days.
    It must be wonderful to see her looking around with those big ‘chocolate’ eyes and being able to see you two.
    Haven is blessed to have you as her parents, and I’m sure you feel just as blessed to have Haven as your daughter. Mother’s Day is coming up…and Haven sure has a wonderful Mommy. Jeremy you have two special girls!
    Have a great week.
    As always,
    Love & Prayers, Laurie

    I’m glad you all had a good weekend! I am continuing to pray that dialysis goes well and that a new plan can be created. It was great to spend sometime with you and I hope to stop by again soon. Love you all!

    Alison ‘n Jeremy,
    We thought about you alot hoping you were having a good weekend. Haven must be feeling so much better without the extra fluid. We’ll be excited to hear she can try her bouncy seat again. We were looking back at her pictures and there she was on her little “throne”.
    So cute. She has such beautiful eyes, you two must love just looking at her. Virgil is still showing her off on his pocket PC. Love ‘n Prayers Always, Bonnie ‘n Virgil
