We are staying at the Gift of Life House until next Tuesday. She has 3 appointments in the coming days and we hope her wound will look a little better before we make the long trip home. Her antibiotics treatment was extended due to the slow progress of the wound healing. They said it would still take several weeks to heal. Thankfully, she is feeling and acting much better! <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Please continue to pray that her heart will remain healthy as she is still on lower doses of her anti-rejection meds and steroids so that her wound has the chance to heal. However, this leaves her heart more at risk of rejection at the moment. Her WBC (white blood count) is still quite a bit lower than it should be, so we appreciate your prayers for that as well\u2026and that she can stay in good health for several weeks while she is recovering from these recent setbacks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The morning after she was discharged from the hospital, she woke up, sat up in her bed and began singing\u2026. That\u2019s our Ela! The song she was singing was such a sweet reminder and balm to my soul:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<pre class=\"wp-block-verse\">\u201cI'm so blessed, I'm so blessed<br>Got this heartbeat in my chest<br>No, it doesn't matter about the rest<br>If I got You, Lord, I'm so blessed\u201d <br><\/pre>\n\n\n\n<p>I think we all need to be reminded how blessed we are despite our circumstances sometimes and that the Lord is truly all we need.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-video\"><video height=\"720\" style=\"aspect-ratio: 1280 \/ 720;\" width=\"1280\" controls src=\"https:\/\/cota.org\/cotaforgabrielaswarriors\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6275\/2025\/02\/trim.5280D8E6-3554-44AF-B2F3-90D6189DE2AE.mov\"><\/video><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Ela was discharged from hospital on Tuesday!
