We are pleased and thankful to report that Cheyenne's surgery went VERY smoothly!
We arrived at the hospital about 7am, where we were met by our sweet pastor who was already there (and if you saw traffic that morning, you'd be impressed too!). We got all checked in and Pastor Dirk prayed with us before he had to make his trek across town to his other job. We SO much appreciated him being there and offering much comfort to Cheyenne as she waited for surgery. After some painful anesthesia prep, she was wheeled back to the OR. The surgery only took about an hour and we were reunited with our baby in no time. She had some post-op recovery time and we were home by noon!
We just want to say thank you to our friend Cindee who was so sweet to offer to watch all the little ones so both Greg and I could be with Cheyenne. We also want to thank Cathi, John, Shelley, Stephanie K., and Shannon for providing meals for our family, and our church family for their prayers. I must mention how surprised I was to learn, from my sweet pastor's wife, that all these arrangements had been made in advance. We are overwhelmed and we are blessed!
Thank you, Father, for granting us your perfect peace and keeping your loving hand of protection upon your child. We give you all the glory, honor, and praise for keeping Cheyenne safe and pray that your healing hands will continue to grace her over the coming weeks!

I am so relieved that the first part is over! I will be praying for her recovery now!
ReplyDeleteGod Bless you my sweetie! Your Idaho family is praying for a speedy and painless recovery. We love you Chey!!!! Kisses and gentle hugs :)
ReplyDeleteYou may know that late on Tuesday I took a pretty good fall and by Wednesday was not in shape to cook the meal I had promised. SHELLEY to the rescue! She had Nathan take her to the grocery store late Tuesday night to get the things for the meal SHE wanted to cook for you, and she did every bit of it by herself, and made a double batch so we had plenty here, also. I'm sorry that I didn't get to do it, but God knew and provided Shelley an opportunity for loving service to our friends. She's a gem!
ReplyDeleteWell, Shelley did a FABULOUS job! The meal was wonderful and we thank her profusely! I hope you are feeling better and not in too much pain!
ReplyDeleteHooray for our precious big girls! What would we do without them! :-)
I am glad that everything went well! I understand the feeling of having a baby, no matter the age, have to have surgery. I'll kep praying for a smooth recovery.
ReplyDeleteI am so glad that she is doing well. Tell her that I am thinking of her and love her LOTS!!!!!!!!!!!
