a request...

I would like to ask for your faith and prayers in behalf of our sweet little girl. She is having a hard time with eating. In the last several days she has dropped in the volume she takes everyday. If we can't get her volume back up she may need to get a feeding tube. I know that a feeding tube wouldn't be the end of the world by any means, but I would still rather her not have to go through surgery at all if it can be avoided. The feeding tube would be placed directly through her abdomen. As of right now she doesn't need one. She has been gaining the weight her pediatrician wants her to. However, if her volume doesn't improve soon, that may not be the case.

If you could please pray for her to have improved stamina for eating, as well as an increase in appetite. Thank you for your love and for your help.

I feel bad that we haven't been to see you, but we do have a gift for Elli. I also wanted you to know that my kids pray for "Bradley's baby sister" every night still. We love you guys and hope to come out soon to drop off the gift. Good luck with everything. You are an amazing mother! - Jenny McAllister
