So I just wanted to do a quick post of the latest with Avery. I don’t have time to write one so here is a prayer request email that my friend Heather Botero put together. Thank you all for your prayers!!! They are obviously effective! =)

I just off the phone with Jennifer and my heart is so filled with JOY! Avery is doing so well, and he is so strong.
- -That there would be no complications durring surgery, & Jesus would be leading the hands of the surgons
- -That once the fluid has been drained his brain will expand. (they say the brain is like a sponge and will expand once the pressure is relieved)
- -That none of his brain will be missing, and it will be completely functioning
- -That once the pressure is gone, the swelling in his eyes will go down & that his bottom lip would be normal, its twisted right now to the left a little and is problamatic when nursing.
- -There would be no nerve damage
- -The shunt would never get infected, and would not give him any issues.
- -He would have a speedy recovery & would not be in alot of pain.
