Children

This little nugget's a trooper. One month old and had brain surgery...wow. So what had happened is the ventricle that makes the spinal fluid flow from the brain to the spine closed off, and this was causing fluid to surround this little queens brain. The doctors put a shunt in said ventricle and drained the excess fluid into her stomach. She may or may not need to have another surgery when she gets older to put in a bigger shunt, I'm praying that it just opens up by itself and no other surgeries will be necessary. They're running tests to see if the excess fluid did any damage to her brain, but there's really no way to tell until she starts growing up and hitting milestones. I think she'll be fine, this baby has been bathed in so much prayer it's amazing. She's staying at the hospital until Monday or Tuesday, but already showing so much improvement. Thank you everybody for your prayers, words cannot express how much my family appreciates them.

On the flip side, I got to hang out with the Queen for the last three days and we've been having a blast! Love this little muffin so much! We went for a walk and then we danced...well, bounced, but it was still fun.

As much as I wish I had a more money to do with as I wished i.e. traveling and buying food, I love that my schedule is free and that I am able to be here for my sister at pretty much any time she needs me.

I hung out with my estranged sister yesterday for the first time since April, we haven't said more than 8 words to each other since moving out. I'm glad that things are back to semi-normal again. We had D.Q. and went to the O.G. We laughed a lot and had a great time. Thank you Jesus for healing wounds.
