Result of Lizzie's operation


Hi everyone, we just spoke to the surgeon a few minutes ago. The op is a success!!! Lizzie's current O2 saturation is above 90%!!!! Praise the Lord!!! And thank you everyone for your prayers... from the bottom of our hearts as well as Lizzie's!!!

One side comment the surgeon made was Lizzie is so chubby that they took almost 2 hours and still not able to insert a line into her blood vessel. They had to instead put a tube into a major blood vessel at her groin. Our chubby little princess :)

We thank the Lord for a smooth operation and we continue to pray for a speedy recovery free from any complications. During this period, we have also received an answered prayer and encouragements. Lizzie's fourth and fifth teeth have erupted, after a break that made even lizziemommy (who's a dentist) worried that Digeorge's Syndrome may cause Lizzie to have missing teeth. That has been one of our personal prayers for her. We have also received encouragements from friends overseas as well as some we have not been in touch with for some time. Praise God for assuring us that He is in control always and sends encouragements when we need them most.

Lizzie will be sedated for the next 1 to 2 days. For those who are thinking of sending anything to Lizzie, please don't. It already means a lot to us that you are reading this blog and praying for her.

We will continue to keep you updated!!

God bless,
Simon
