My heart is heavy for you guys, too, and I pray that God will lift yours up as He heals Alicia's heart post-surgery and continues to weave and heal her little body. <br />And please know that your visits are a huge blessing to her--she needs you guys, so don't let yourself belief your visits cause her stress! Even the research backs that up; you and Linda and your presence with her, your touch, your voices--those are all crucial parts of her healing and development. I'm so glad she is blessed with prayerful, faithful, loving, compassionate parents like you two!Macchiattohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01143076637938193104noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4465283616490974027.post-84060919563898564112011-06-16T13:12:24.303+08:002011-06-16T13:12:24.303+08:00Linda and Campbell, your visits really truly matte...Linda and Campbell, your visits really truly matter. Your songs and your prayers matter. I remember feeling so frustrated that I couldn't just take Josiah home. I sang, prayed, and comforted through my voice. Do you know that he knew? He remembered the songs we sang to him while he was in the hospital. When we sang them at home, he would perk up and give us a look. He knew we were there for him and it mattered to him that we were there. I know it's hard, but it really matters. You are not pretending to be a father. You are being the best father you can be by being there for her and crying out to God on her behalf. <br /><br />Love,<br />Teresa & the Ko Familymamatreehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10959531987966572344noreply@blogger.com
