Lily Grace Needs a Miracle!

Lily's open heart surgery went well.

The surgeon said that her heart was just as complex as he 
suspected it would be.

Her unique anatomy posed many challenges for him 
throughout her procedure...our little girl is an over achiever!

After a long afternoon and evening of very irregular heart rhythms
(ranging from 50 to 190), at 11:30pm the cardiologists
decided to paralyze Lily with drugs.

Lily's blood pressure is dangerously low,
and her irregular rhythms are not correcting themselves.
The goal of the paralysis  is to help Lily's body fully rest and heal.

Nitric Oxide gas has also been added to Lily's treatment.

Because of Lily's unique anatomy, the cardiologists continue to
do echocardiograms, and have them reviewed by the team.

The doctors are rallying right now to decide upon their next step.

Lily Grace needs a miracle, 
and I know just the man who can help her out!
So many of you are praying, and your support and love is
AMAZING!

P.U.S.H
Pray Until Something Happens...


So let us come boldly to the throne of our gracious God. 
There we will receive his mercy, 
and we will find grace to help us 
when we need it most. 
Hebrews 4:16 NLT

  3. I am storming heaven for your family and your sweet Lily Grace! I sat in a PICU praying constantly for 31 days as my son hung in the balance between life and death. He had so many lines they had to invent something to keep them all straight. The Doctors all said if there was ever a child that they said would never leave the PICU alive it was Jeremiah. 2 years later he lays beside me as I type this! GOD IS ABLE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I wish I could come and hug y'all! and bring you a hot home cooked meal as you pray at her bedside! Please know there are those of us in Louisiana and all over I am sure, standing in the gap for you!

  6. Emily,
    My Mom and I are praying for Lily Grace!!! She pointed out to me that she is missing a bow in her hair in this picture and she wondered if she is stressing because she doesn't have one.

    Praying for your family,
    Carmel
