Next week we will be spending several days in Seattle, because our precious girl has her annual heart cath and biopsy. The transplant team will be checking for rejection, as well as looking at narrowing of vessels and evaluating heart function. Anxiety is definitely setting in for us. No matter how risky the procedure, it's hard to hand your child over to doctors to be put under anesthesia and be worked on. Emma doesn't usually handle the recovery very well, so we are hoping and praying that all goes well this time. It will also be hard awaiting the rejection biopsy results, but she hasn't had any signs of rejection, so we are thankful for that. As we get closer to cath day, please keep Emma in your prayers that she will stay healthy. So many people around us are getting sick, and we really need her to stay healthy for her procedure. Thank you all for your continued prayers. As stressful as this can be, we continue to lean on the Lord for strength.
You all are always in my prayers and will say extra special ones for the upcoming cath. I know you'll keep us posted. Thanks for continuing to share the journey.

Miss Emma, I am praying and singing over you and your upcoming cath and biopsy. I am singing God's joy over you; He delights in His incomparable creation of you. "Bless thou the Lord oh my soul, praise ye the Lord." He is with you and will be with you always, and in all ways. Love, Miss Carol
