Bladder test - more wonderful news!

We are totally ecstatic. Alex continues to amaze us every step of the way. The results show that her bladder is functioning properly, and none of her urine is backing up. I can't tell you how relieved we are (pun unintended). Our prayers have been answered once again.

It's truly amazing, this journey we're on. And we couldn't have a better support group than the one we have right here. We'll know a bit more about the shunt possibility tomorrow after she has her head ultrasound. But things are looking very bright.

Thank you for the updates on the blog!

Whoa, that's awesome! She sounds like she's a tough little girl. BTW, you'll be amazed out how much pee and poo can excite you when you're a new parent. ;)

Love,

Andy, Kerri, and Zoe "Diaper Champ" Gingerich

Dear Jimmy & Nicole ... I notice the timing of tonights news which came during the SFC Elders meeting where we prayed for all 3 of you specifically. Great news and we are reminded what a great God we have to help us through life's challenges. Rachel & I want you to know how special you are to us, and that we will continue of course to keep you lifted up. We cant wait for the next round of news and are anxious to see you when the time is right ... Our love to all ... John Anderson
