A Prayer for Preemies

Praise!

Melissa and Mason met with the surgeon and nurse that will be taking care of Olivia tomorrow. Her surgery will be at 12:30 tomorrow, so please pray for a wonderful outcome! Melissa said told me that the surgeon and the nurse are such a blessing from God. The surgeon sat down with her and Mason and told them step by step of what to expect. They were positive about the outcome; however, prayer is still needed desperately! Power of prayer is strong and with it, Olivia will be strong! The surgeon also drew out a picture of Olivia's heart and showed them where the problem was. A nurse, Elizabeth, will be taking care of Olivia during, after surgery and all day tomorrow. She is amazing, and was formally a "primary care" nurse, but got too attached so she had to go back to just being a regular NICU nurse. We need nurses like her to around Liv; that means she loves her job and the babies in NICU. God has sent angels down to watch over Olivia Jane; I believe that with everything in me!


Overall, Olivia Jane had a good day; however, she is still very sick due to the hole in her heart. It has made her very lethargic and swollen. Melissa got to change her diaper today for the first time so that was awesome! Mason, you have been so precious through all of this. You are an amazing father and husband, and I am so blessed to be able to call you a part of my family and my friend. Lord, please give Olivia the strength that she needs to get through this surgery and the "will" to get better after surgery. We love her so much God, please watch over Olivia and wrap your arms around her and please keep her safe! Aunt Jessie loves you Olivia Jane!
