UPDATE

It's me.. Crystal! I have a minute so I wanted to post a quick update.

BIG HUGE thanks to Brittany for helping me out with the last two post. She will be posting for me again this evening (I think). Bentley is doing absolutely AMAZING. I know that the last post is not showing up in the dashboard (for some).. so if you did not read the last post go here to catch up.. it was a GREAT update with LOTS of pictures!

What's going on now... well Bentley is still doing wonderfully. In fact, she medically IS ready to be discharged.. but since we are having a couple of problems with vomiting.. we must wait until this is under control. So in order for us to be discharged, she will have to gain weight 2 days in a row and take her medicine and keep it down. Once these are achieved we will then move to a nearby hotel until her follow up and they release her to go home (which is 7 days after we leave the hospital). PRAISE GOD for such a healthy recovery from her heart surgery!

Expect one more update tonight.. with pictures!! Oh, and today is our anniversary (7 years).. and what a wonderful seven years it has been! We are abundantly blessed! Love you babe!!!

Thank you so much for all your prayers. They ARE working!

    Happy Happy Anniversary! By far the best gift anyone could ask for! I've been out of town for a about a week but catching up on Bentley's progress religiously.

    I'll be praying for her and just absolutely excited that this is overall going so well for Bentley.

    Hope your older two are doing good as well. I tell ya... kids love their routine (what I learned vacationing over the weekend).

    All our love and prayers for you family.

    So glad Bentley is out of the hospital!

    Do you remember Mrs. Turman from high school she worked in the office? I just saw her and she asked about Bentley and how she is doing! Crazy huh!
