Just got off the phone with the schedulers at Duke Eye Center. My baby will have her second eye surgery around 8:45 in the morning.
As for me, I've done this once before. (I wrote about it here). I know I can do it again. The surgery is minor and routine. Still I must admit that I'm not looking forward to my time back in the waiting chair because anesthesia is anesthesia and I'm not going to pretend to like it.
This time though, I know that there are many out there ~ dear friends, loving family, and even folks who come by Fireworks and Fireflies on a regular basis to check what's going on with our little family ~ that are praying. If you are one of those, THANK YOU! Your prayers got us through last time and we covet them again this time.
Here are a few things on our hearts as we wait for surgery to be complete:
Darcy will not be anxious or afraid as this time she knows what the surgery center is.
Darcy will not be hungry before surgery.
Peace of mind for Ian and I as we wait.
Dr. F's hand to again be skilled.
Darcy will wake up gently from anesthesia.
Darcy will not experience nausea following surgery.
Quick recovery.
This half of the goiniotomy will get pressure numbers down to where they need to be and Darcy can avoid another eye surgery.
I'll post when we get home tomorrow...

I haven't been in Bloggyland much lately...long story...but I'm glad I stopped by today. I'll be praying for your sweet little one!
I'll be praying for your sweetie. And her mama, too.
Darcy's surgery is on my list of top 2 things to pray about in the morning. I hope all goes well.
I will be praying for Darcy, you and Ian. May God guide the hands of the wonderful team that will be taking care of her while she is at the hospital. May her days following surgery be restful and uneventful. May the peace of God be with you and Ian in the morning and while you wait.
Keep us updated on how everything goes.

Will be thinking and praying for your sweet Darcy today! Keep us posted.
Praying for Darcy, and you as well as Ian! She is a special little girl and she is so brave!
Hearing Kylie say that Darcy is "beautiful just the way God made her" was such a blessing. Darcy is beautiful and she is God's precious child. Am trusting that all of our prayers will be answered for this special little one.
Love, LaoLao
