I have a prayer request...Our Anna Grace is having a very serious surgery in the morning at 7:15 a.m. Please be praying for her. Her surgery is called a selective dorsal rhizotomy and it will take place at St. Louis Children's Hospital. Anna Grace was diagnosed with Cerebral Palsy when she was two years old. It has not affected her mind. She's so smart! But it has affected her physically. Anna Grace has a hard time walking like the rest of the kids here age.
Tomorrow the doctor plans to go in through Anna Grace's spinal cord and snip nerve fibers that cause the spasticity and tightness in Anna Grace's leg. If all goes as planned, which we have faith that it will, Anna Grace will be able to walk and RUN like other eight year olds.
Anna Grace is going to be in a lot of pain for several days following the surgery and will be in a wheelchair for a few weeks. She will also have to go through several months of intense physical therapy.
Please pray for the doctors that will be performing the surgery tomorrow. Pray that there will be no complications and that this surgery will be a success. Pray for Anna Grace. Pray for her parents and her family. Just pray.
Sweet Anna Grace,
Jax is ready to run with you!
We love you precious girl!
