Request for your prayers

After wiping tears of joy while we watched yesterday's video (over and over again) with Erik and Dawn's latest idea of how to help Analise strengthen her arms and legs... we were able to post Erik and Dawn's comments and pictures.  We meant to add our comment to yesterday's post, but in addition to having difficulty posting the video, we also had to deal with a virus with our computer and it just got to be too late...we thought Macs didn't get viruses?!?!?!?    :(

So let's try this again today:
Erik and Dawn are probably having to make the most difficult decision thus far about their baby, our Sweet Analise.  We can't even imagine the anguish they are going through at this time.  The decisions they've had to make were difficult enough when Analise was first born with arthrogryposis, the intestine problems and surgeries that followed, the arm/hand problems,  and the club feet and knee problems, etc, and it's only been two and a half months!!

The decision they are currently having make is even more difficult than the previous ones, considering the fact that both doctors that have seen Analise for the knee problem have opposing opinions!!

In addition to gathering as much information as possible so that they can make an informed decision, as Erik and Dawn have been diligently doing, during times like this is when we must rely on our faith and prayer to help us in making the best decision.

We know we can count on all of you to keep Erik and Dawn in your prayers:
  • To give them comfort during this challenging time
  • To help Erik and Dawn be of one heart and mind in their decision-making process
  • To give them wisdom and discernment so that they are able to make the best decision for their baby, our Sweet Analise.
  • and
  • To give them peace as they move forward with their decision.
We can't wait to see what Erik and Dawn's next idea will be to help Analise exercise her arms and legs, we loved that video!!!   ;-)
