No News, Yet

Well, we won't know any results until tomorrow. Kelsey's also going to have a sonogram to see how much fluid is still around. Then, all the doctors will talk about a plan based on the results. Please pray for great results so the heart surgery will be possible. They're talking about doing another liver biopsy, also. Kelsey really, really , really needs the heart surgery but the surgeon doesn't want to do it with her liver doing so bad and at this point she really believes Kelsey's liver is not going to get better. So, if something good doesn't happen soon with the liver the alternative is she won't make it. Needless to say, I'm struggling with staying positive with waiting for possible good news from tomorrow's tests results and with the idea that between Kelsey's liver and heart she's not going to make it. I know God is able to heal Kelsey and praying He will. It's been a roller coaster ride for me today. There has always been the possibility that Kelsey won't recover from the liver failing and it's getting closer and closer to that possibility. I'm just trying to enjoy this time with her and not think about that possibility but it's hard. I know you are all praying and I can feel the Lord giving me peace, hope and strength. A friend gave me this verse yesterday and I'm praying it for me and Kelsey Romans 15:13 "Now may the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace as you believe in him, so that you may abound in hope by the power of the Holy Spirit."

  1. O Lord Jesus Christ,
    Hear me in my distress.
    You came down from heaven
    to save what was lost, and
    I ask you now to come to me
    in my hour of need and
    help me through this trial.
    Fill me with the peace of
    Your holy presence
    and take control of my life.
    You are my Savior and
    my Consolation.
    Amen.

  3. I have not had the pleasure of meeting Kelsey in person, but seeing the pictures it's so amazing to see the strength, courage and promise that God has annointed on her. She is such a testament to relying on God. Praying for you daily and shaking heaven's gates.
