Lily

Dear Family and Friends,

We wanted to share our story about a miracle. As you know, Lily was scheduled for surgery that was to take place today. She was born with her hip dislocated and they decided six months ago to do surgery to try to put the hip back in place. The surgery was going to be followed by 12 weeks in a cast that would make her unable to move much. The surgery was scheduled back in July and we have been dreading what was to come.

Yesterday we went to the hospital for the admission process. The first step in the process was to take an x-ray. After the doctor viewed the x-ray he wanted to see us right away. Through a miracle, the ball part of her bone is lined up with where it should be. The doctor hopes that as it grows and gets bigger it will fill up the hip socket and be okay. For now, she doesn’t need the surgery! What a blessing for our family.

As we have prayed and given thanks for this blessing we have felt that it comes to us, in large part, through your fasting and prayers on our behalf. We thank you so much! The Lord loves you and continues to hear your prayers. Thank you for taking part in this miracle with us. We have felt your love and prayers!

Much Love,
Spencer and Shreann
