In just 3 days we will celebrate our miracle boy Devin's second birthday and the 1 year anniversary of his injuries. While we are SO blessed and beyond grateful to be able to celebrate him one year later, we face yet another situation that we would like you to pray for.
Tomorrow, September 25, 2012 Devin will head back to Loma Linda Childrens Hospital to undergo surgery for a cranioplasty. Cranioplasty is a surgical repair of a defect or deformity of the skull. Devin has been without the left portion of his skull for a few months now and the doctors will use a polyether ether ketone material which is an organic polymer thermoplastic to close the gap that is missing. Surgery is scheduled for 7-8:00am and will last between 2 to 3 hours. We will update you as soon as we have any information!
Please pray that the surgeons will be rested and use skilled hands to perform the surgery. We ask that you pray for Devin that he responds well to the surgery and for his mother Katy and his family as they anxiously await the completion of the surgery.
Thank you for your support and continued prayers and God Bless!
For I am the LORD, your God, who takes hold of your right hand and says to you, Do not fear; I will help you. Isaiah 41:13

Not sure who wrote this latest update but reading the passage just about knocked me over! Today for the first time in many many months I went through my wallet and though I always keep it there, had not read a note card that was given to me at Loma Linda when Devin began this very difficult and miraculous journey. The card has the very same passage! We are given signs at all times! What we choose to do with them is what makes our lives count...I love that we are all connected in one way or another by this sweet little boy. ALL POSITIVE THOUGHTS AND PRAYERS TO YOU DEVIN...xo
ReplyDeleteOur family has been praying for Devin and family. We hope everything goes well with the surgery and look forward to seeing that lil angel smiling soon. We will continue to pray for Devin, Katy and family no doubt. Please keep us updated when you can. Hugs and kisses all around for that lil guy.
