Christmas day comes first and I am excited that it does, because that means Haleigh will get to enjoy her new toys from Santa before surgery. She is so excited seeing the lights on the tree and the houses as we ride by. She misses nothing!
The second comes on the 29th with her second surgery. We will head to Atlanta on the 28th, she will have surgery on the 29th and we will return home the 30th. We thought about staying the week but since gas as fallen in price these past few weeks we feel it would cheaper to come home. We will return to Atlanta the following week for stitch removal and stay one night.
We again got our surgery hotel night donated to us. I am so blessed that so many are helping us help Haleigh, many that have never met us! I hope everyone involved knows how thankful we truly are.

We had Haleigh's pre op appointment last Friday. Our new primary doctor felt we should get a CBC even though Atlanta didn't require one. I agreed that it wouldn't hurt anything. I am glad we did it was found Haleigh was anemic. Her iron is 10.8 normal is between 11 and 14. We started her on iron supplements and it will not keep her from surgery. Surgery number has to be 10.5 and above. So we are all set there as long as she's on the supplemental iron her level will not fall. Everything else with her check up went awesome. Our new primary care is wonderful.
Please pray as we travel as well as for the surgeries and stitch removal to go smoothly. And as always that Haleigh will be peaceful and that any nerves will be calmed. Again that you all so much for everything you do and the prayers that have been lifted for us!
