Hello Boston

We have spoken with the Sugeons at Boston Childrens. So much to tell you all. But I want to wait until tomorrow when it's not almost midnight (oh wait, that would be tomorrow!). Anyway, it's been a crazy couple of days. We have gone from yesterday, being told transplant time was here, to today, a whole other ball game! We don't have much time to get this done. My mothers instinct was true and real! Ivy needs much of what was done during her big surgery... Well, redone..
We are going to Boston. Sooner than later.... I should hear back from them tomorrow as we work out the details and coordinate everything. I will give you all the details tomorrow. Prayer warriors, Game On AGAIN!!! This is a very high risk surgery on a fragile little tiny peanut! I am at peace and yet shaking like a leaf at the same time.
Thank you in advance!!!

Jeremiah 29:11
"For I know the plans I have for you declares the Lord.
Plans to prosper you and not harm you, plans to give you HOPE and a future."

  1. Will be praying. My dh saw your girl's picture and asked about her (she is my background on my computer) she looks just like our girl. We go to the cardiologist in a week and a half.

  9. I am in Boston, well, 30 minutes north of it, and have a daughter from China who goes to CHB for cardiology. We see Dr Lang. LOVE the cardiology department there. Please let me know if I can help in any way.

  11. I have been following your story since you brought Ivy home. I live in Chicago but work in Boston during the week (right near the hospital) and would like to help out if possible.

  17. Just a lurker coming out...Covering your family in prayers. We live 90 miles from Boston and have gone to Boston Children's when we need a consult on our daughter's cancer diagnosis only to find out it was a misdiagnosis. Praise the Lord! You should know your little bean will be in some very capable and talented hands!! Good Bless!

  18. You'll be in good hands. They took great care of me and I surpassed any of the doctors expectations.

    I pray that Ivy will get the care she needs and she will heal quickly.

    Let us know if there is anything we can do to assist. We are in CT and go to Boston often. Hubby also lived there.

    Blessings.

    A few posts back you mentioned an interest in e-mailing our daughter Lena Yi Yi who is 14 and home 20 months from China and prays regularly for little Ivy. If you would still like to do that Lena is interested. Please contact her at our e-mail flutevet@yahoo.com
