I know it\u2019s July now, but here\u2019s an update on how Ela\u2019s June appointments went! Tests confirm her heart is functioning well. God is still answering prayers! Here\u2019s just one way He has answered our prayers this past month:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In May, Ela\u2019s antibody markers (which can indicate possible rejection) were on the rise again. (I\u2019m not sure we posted about that). We prayed for God to bring those down so she wouldn\u2019t have to do IVIG treatments again. This month (June), they were down-trending! So no more all-day IVIG infusion treatments as of now!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Please continue to pray for these things: <\/p>\n\n\n\n

This month, her liver numbers were elevated. Please pray those come down and do not continue to rise. Her team has added on an extra appointment, on top of the usual monthly appointments, for July due to these elevated numbers and they are keeping a close eye on this.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Continue to pray for the donor family. We are in the process of writing and submitting a letter. I feel that words can\u2019t convey the depth of gratitude we have. We may never hear back or never get to meet (although I hope we do). But they and their child will always hold a special place in our lives.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This month has been another of rejoicing and celebrating all the physical things Ela gets to enjoy for the first time or experience in a new way! We watched her play in the ocean, run in relay games, and enjoy water play all while having energy to keep going, pink lips\/fingers\/toes, and so much fun she didn\u2019t want to stop! All praise to God for the amazingly great things He has done! <\/p>\n\n\n\n
