Sorry it has been so long since our last update. We have been very busy trying to get everything finished on our new house. We are finally there. We are moving in on Friday. We have to be out of our rental by the end of the month. So, we just made it.
Lauren celebrated her one year post transplant day on Nov. 5th. She is doing so much better than we could have hoped for. She seems to be thriving. She hasn’t regressed any since transplant and has gained many new skills. She just seems healthier. We feel confident that God has a very special plan for Lauren. Our prayer for Lauren is that she someday is able to share her testimony with others. She already does in her own way. When she sings “Jesus Loves Me”, her sweet spirit impacts so many lives. We hate that our sweet angel was cursed with this horrible syndrome but we feel so blessed for every day God gives us with her. Thank you so much for your prayers and support thru this difficult year. We know we have a long road ahead of us, but with prayers and therapy, we have very high hopes for Lauren’s future.
We celebrated Lauren’s 5th birthday on November 15th. She turned 5 years old. We had her party at an indoor play area for kids ages 1-6. We rented the place for the morning so Lauren wasn’t exposed to a lot of other children. Her brother and 2 of her cousins were all that were there. They all had a great time. Lauren spent her 4th birthday in the hospital, so getting to see her play with other kids and just be able to get out and start going places again is so wonderful. Lauren starts her revaccination process on November 29th. It is going to be 3 years before she is caught up with all of her shots again. Please pray that Lauren does well with the vaccination process and that she doesn’t have any regression during it. The long term success of the transplant and the soy pill Lauren is on is unknown. So please continue to pray that it will stop the progression of her disease or that a cure can be found.
We want to wish you all a very Happy Thanksgiving. As you can tell, we have so much to be thankful for this year. You all are a very important part of that. Your prayers and support have been so appreciated. We pray that God blesses all the families that have been so wonderful to our family this past year. THANKYOU!
