Updates Prayer Requests Etc





Greetings from the frozen tundra!!!!! Yes I know it is winter and just Indiana but man is it cold!!!!! Zac is settling in quite nicely with us and I am praising GOD that it feels like progress!!!!! The only thing I have to get used to is the noise level when they get riled up. I so can't wait for the weather to warm and they can go run off some of that energy! I do have 1 question When we were a family of 4 I had 4 loads of laundry every other week and 5 loads every other week. Now we add 1 little boy and now I have 10 loads every week! What is up with that? Back to Zac he is so so funny and sweet and stubborn and Loving. He is brave and strong. He is also very smart. He likes to wear button down shirts and ties. It is a riot. I wish I could find where they hid the battery charger for my camera so I can take picture of Zac and Zoe all in the finery. They came downstairs yesterday she in a dress and heals complete with jewels and a Sunday hat and Zac in Zebs dress shirt and tie ( that he does not like to wear at all) big grins on their faces and so proud saying they are going out on the town and will I watch Zeb their son because that is what grannies do! LOL!!!!
So onto the prayer requests. We have been going back and forth to the hospital and have several more specialist appointments scheduled in the next month. Some of the tests have come back and we need prayers. I am waiting for the Dr to call me this morning to tell me when Zac is to have a sedated MRI of his head and spine. His leg Xrays show that his femur is dislocated through his knee. So he'll have to have that fixed before we can decide what to do about his tibia and foot for a prosthetic device. The leg is the least of our worries at this point though and my heart is breaking my sweet funny little boy who is having to face so many tests and so many long trips in the car. GOD knew what he was doing when he rapidly moved so many mountains to get Zac home to us. I pray we get a complete diagnosis in the next weeks and a game plan on how to proceed with repairing Zacs body so he can heal and grow and be the great kid I know he is. Please hold Zac up in your prayers that he cooperates with the Drs for his MRI and they can get a clear picture and be able to tell without any doubts what is going on and it can be an easy fix and that the BEST neurosurgeons will take his case and GOD lines everything up perfectly for Zac and it all falls into place perfectly. This child has been through so much and has so much more comming up. My heart breaks to see him endure all of this and he does it with such grace and dignity. I am so proud of him!!!!! Zac is quickly becomming my hero! I thank GOD for the opportunity to walk this path and be a part of this amazing childs life. His story is so awesome, inspiring and miraculous. I know GOD has so many more miraculous chapters to add to his book. What a walking epistle he is and will be. He has a big plan for Zac I can just feel it and am honored to be called his Mother ( even if he still says I am his big sister!!!!!).
Much Love to you all

Hi Lisa,

I am sorry it has been so long since I have been by to check on Zac and the rest of your family. I am sending a prayer your way for your sweet baby boy and I know that God will help him to become a strong and healthy little boy. It brings so much joy to my heart to finally see Zac home and we are thinking of you guys.

Love,
Jonni
