WHY GOD SENDS HLHS BABIES

It's a beautiful day up in heaven. Jesus is rounding up his tiniest angels, to go live on earth, and be born. One of the sweetest angels says to Jesus "I don't want to leave, I like it here, and I will miss you." He reassures the scared little angel that everything will be okay, and that he is just going for a visit. He is still not swayed on this idea. So Jesus kneels down and says, "How about if you leave half of your heart here with me and take the other half with you. Will that be okay?" The angel smiles and says, "I guess that will work." But the little angel is still a little scared. He asks, "Will I be okay with only half of my heart?" Jesus replies, "Of course you will. I have other angels there that will help out, and you will be fine." Then Jesus gives the angel more details about his plan. He says, "When you are born your mommy will be scared, so you have to be strong, and when you feel weak just remember that I have the other half of your heart. Enjoy your time with your family play and laugh everyday, and when it's time to come back to heaven I will make your heart whole again. Always remember that you are not broken just torn between two loves."

He's doing great



It's been almost 48 hours since Kenzen had his surgery. He is doing great. The only thing he needs to improve on is his kidney function. He hasn't been peeing much at all and that has made him pretty swollen and they can't close his chest until he's not swollen anymore. It is normal for these babies to not pee for 1-3 days after surgery they just like it to move a little faster so he can heal faster. We are hoping that they can close his chest on Friday and remove his drainage tubes and catheter sometime over the weekend. We had the missionaries stop by Monday night and help Dave give him a blessing after he was done. They blessed him that he would make a quick recovery and that it was time for him to come home and meet his family. Me and Dave are very relieved to hear that and can sleep well again. We know that everything will be okay and are looking forward to the day he gets to come home. The doctor said that they might be able to transport him back when he is more stable which is usually 3-4 weeks which we would really like cause then he would be close to home again and we wouldn't have to worry about driving him all the way home from here when it's time. It all depends on insurance. I will continue to update as he improves.
