He is only 22 months but has had two cardiac caths and open-heart surgery (and hospitalizations for other illnesses), as well as dealing with hypothyroidism and developmental delay. I pray that a heart comes along soon for Rachel so that she will get to experience "feeling good" for a change!

Although he is never at a loss for words, it was good to read your story to fill in the blanks that he didn't always fill. Remember that people you do not even know in North Carolina are praying for you and your family.

I noticed her scar peeking from 'neath her clothing. I smiled at her & whispered a prayer. Our stories are different, yet similar. I understand. Matha'is had a heart transplant on April 25, 2011. He is well because our God is amazingly GOOD. Rachel too, is blessed. Waiting is difficult & the actual surgery even more. Recovery isn't easy. But you all have already been prepared through your experiences. Your family is preciously unique & is in my prayers. May the Lord continue to bless & keep you.Kim T.https://www.blogger.com/profile/10744935815428704805noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-963412631861192079.post-56915774342861122812011-06-25T17:50:19.045-04:002011-06-25T17:50:19.045-04:00I love you Rachel with all my heart.
