Prayer for my niece Anara
Posted by nathan on 18 Oct 2007 | Tagged as: my life.
So my niece Anara (Emily’s brother Nathan’s daughter) is checking in to the hospital today for a major 8-12 hour surgery, which comes with a 3-week hospital stay and another 8 weeks or so at home in a traction unit (similiar to an external cast). (FYI, she was scheduled for surgery last month, but due to a diaper rash, it was postponed.)
Long story short, Anara was born with her bladder on the outside of her body, and her pelvis never fused together, which makes her feet (and legs) point outward. All of this is to be corrected in Friday’s surgery.
I encourage you to stop by the Hublog (Hubartt-Log) for updates, and also to check out last night’s post on the Hublog for more detailed info on tomorrow’s surgery as well as check out some photos of our beautiful nieces Violet and Anara!
