Please Pray for Sophie Wei's Surgery Tomorrow

Tomorrow is Sophie Wei's surgery.
Please pray for her, anesthesiologis
t and her doctors.

We will arrive around 7 am. Surgery is scheduled to start at 9am but there is an older little boy that needs to go first due to an stress fracture protrusion and the doctor has another surgery later(hope I got that right, praying for him too.)This afternoon we put pre-wrap on Simone and Sophie Wei's dollies.
(I found this idea from Bobbies blog.) It was good because it brought up a lot of good conversation. Sophie Wei kept saying "O" after I would tell her very simple words about her surgery and cast.

Tonight while talking to the anesthesiologist I had to take deep breaths and write down my notes so I could remember every thing to tell Rick. He had to be at school tonight for an open house. I am so glad that my Mom is here because I had the girls in the bath so she took over.


I feel such at peace with how things are going. The anesthesiologist was so easy to talk to. She did do most of the talking tonight but I did ask a few questions. She did her research and looked at all of Sophie Wei's medical information before she called. She took her time with me and was very sensitive. She was in no hurry to get off of the phone. When she told me about when it is time for Sophie Wei to go into surgery they can take her from the prep-room and roll her bed down or I could walk her down the hallway to the doors and kiss her good by? I just started crying as I visualized that in my head and then I thought to my self pull it together because there is more to talk about.
Sophie Wei you are such a sweet, silly, fun, lovable,
resilient little girl and we love you very much.
We are so blessed to be your Mommy and Daddy.
Every day with you is a blessing.
Wa I Nee.
One of the last things the anesthesiologist said to me was,
"We know she is a survivor."

Thank you Jesus.
