There is a sweet little girl in Noah’s class that needs to be lifted up in prayer. Her name is Haley. She was born on Feb. 5 (just two days before Noah). She has Down Syndrome and had heart surgery this past Tuesday to repair a valve. Her surgery went beautifully, but she developed an infection yesterday and almost died. She is now stable, but still fighting for her life.
Noah’s lead nursery teacher visited Haley’s family after work yesterday and stayed at the hospital until 11 pm. Haley’s parents have been calling P&J all week to keep everyone updated. P&J’s director, Jenny, took a basket of goodies to the family this morning.
Since Noah is just 2 minutes from my office, I am privileged to get to spend my lunch break nursing him everyday. I’ve gotten to know Haley and she is such a remarkable baby. Please pray for Haley’s body to heal and for her parents to feel God’s arms wrapped around them and their precious little girl. Although we praise God everyday for Noah’s life, it’s times like these that take your breath away as a parent. We are so thankful for Noah’s health and hope he and Haley will get to hang out again VERY soon.
