Doctors and Softball!

Abby's busy week is over.  Thursday she had an in home visit with ECI (Early Childhood Intervention) to assess if she needs some assistance for areas like speech therapy and occupational therapy.  Friday she had a follow-up visit to the Cardiologist's office.  Abby had an EKG and a sonogram along with her check-up.  The heart doctor was happy with the results of those tests.  It was great to hear that her heart is healing well! The doctor prayed with us before we left and that was incredibly comforting.  That kind of thing doesn't happen often but it is pretty powerful when it does.

They sent her home on a 24hr heart monitor

Today we took Abigail up to a nearby park where some friends of ours were putting on a softball tournament to raise money for her.  We don't know exactly all of the details or how long it took but Cody Bush, a friend from church, organized a thirteen team tournament and it went really fantastic.  The tournament lasted from nine in the morning until four and it was dang hot out there.  We would like to sincerely thank Cody, several members of our Sunday school class and many people we don't know for their hard work. They helped organize, set up concessions, booked the fields and umpires and sat out in the heat to raise money for an incredible little girl.  We were able to bring Abigail up there for a little while and show her off.  We appreciate all that has been done on her/our behalf. It pretty much blows us away how we have been supported these past few months.

Below are a few shots of mostly our team and helpers but there were many more folks out there who pitched in and played.  Thanks to all of you.

Happy Dad

On Monday, Abigail will be sixteen weeks old, what a crazy ride it has been.  We are so blessed!  Thanks for sharing the journey with us.
