Dear Friends,
Thank you for praying for Sierra Rose and her gastrostomy tube insertion surgery yesterday. The procedure went well. Sierra was alert afterwards. Unfortunately, she was also in much pain. Nurses administered pain relievers every few hours to help ease her discomfort and she is feeling better today.
As of Friday, Sierra's weight was up to 8 lb. 1 oz.--she's a growing kid!
After Sierra Rose heals, she'll be released from the hospital to go home (about 2 weeks). Numerous nurses have cautioned R and J about exposure to viruses. They don't want Sierra to get sick just after being released. We hope you'll understand. After a few months, though, her immune system should be stronger.
Please pray for Sierra Rose's healing from the gastrostomy tube insertion. Pray that she won't be in a lot of pain and won't get an infection.
Thank you very much.
--MK
