Audrey Update

October 2nd Audrey had her surgery. Technically what we had done was reimplant both her ureters into her bladder. They made a small incision at the base of her abdomen (think C-Section). It is just a couple days more than two weeks and she is doing just great!! We are so happy with her recovery and with her hospital experience. It was not easy, but much better than we thought. She went home after 24 hours and has really improved so much each day. November 4th we will go in for the Post-op check up to see if there is any swelling around the kidneys. As long as that is all normal, we are free to take her off the anti-biotics (yippeee!!).

We are very grateful for family and friends fasting and praying for us and Audrey. We felt such a strength and love in the hospital. And we know the Lord is with us...a blessing we do not take lightly.
