We are learning very well to never ever take anything for granted, and that there are no certainties ever at any point....we are still hoping for our July 22nd date, but we are now dealing with Kahlia having "thrush". Not surprising with all the antibiotics she was on. I noticed her white tongue last week, but didn't make the connection that it was thrush until over the weekend while at Brendon's State swimming meet. So, we have her on Nystatin to hopefully clear it up before next Thursday - if it doesn't clear - we will have to reschedule her surgery - again...please no Lord!!! So we are praying really hard that she clears up quickly from this.
As the date gets closer and closer, it becomes harder and harder to think about her going through such a rough surgery - and yet I know that she will feel so much better afterward. I just feel so bad for her for what she's going to have to go through. :-( I wish I could do it for her. But, I know that God is the ultimate Physician, and her life and health is solely in His hands - I am so grateful for that reassurance as I struggle with all that she is up against.
This weekend we had a GREAT time at Brendon's State meet. He did so good - we are really proud of him. His best event was the 100 meter Butterfly - an event he didn't even qualify for at the State meet in February. He took 19 seconds off his time, and placed 8th over all. His time was a 1:41. It was SO hot in Albany where the meet was, and the pool was indoors... :-( Thankfully, we had our motorhome that had a working air conditioner thanks to our generator, and we were the "place to be" for the swimmers and their siblings. Scott's mom and sister also came to support Brendon - a fun time by all!! Kahlia did absolutely wonderful...as usual... :-)
