We ended our 3rd quarter of school, and have officially started spring break! It's always a great feeling, but this break is very bittersweet. We are super excited for a break from work and school, however we are going on NO vacation. The last couple of weeks have been a little rough for all of us, especially Macy. She has been through a lot of emotions. She's had sadness, fear, jealousy, and anger. She seems now at the point of acceptance, and just wants to get this over with as soon as possible. I've said it before, and I'll say it again.....I cannot imagine going through all of this as a 13 year old. To see how well she has managed all of this overall it quite amazing!
Over the last couple of weeks we have had so much support. My coworkers, sports families, neighbors, friends, family, and Macy's teachers have offered so many kind words, cards of encouragement, gift cards for food and parking, offers to help with our zoo of pets, and so many prayers. My brother has listened to me talk about my fears and concerns, and always gives me so much great advice. My mom flew here with a one way ticket to be with McKenna and support all of us as needed. We can't ask for better family and friends! We are truly blessed!!!
Macy's first surgery is Monday morning at 7:30 a.m. It should take a couple of hours. We will then be inpatient until they take her on Wednesday for the big surgery. I hope to know more about the big surgery as we get closer to the day. I may not be answering texts as much as I'd like, but I will try to update the blog every evening. Please pray for two successful surgeries for Macy. Pray for wisdom and steady hands of Macy's surgeons. Please pray for a speedy recovery. Pray for McKenna's sweet heart, and to calm her worries about her sister and parents. Please pray for me and Jeremy to have calm minds, and the ability to support Macy the best we can.
Thank you for checking in on us, and thank you for your continued prayers! We will keep you posted!
