Evie's Latest

A couple of updates on Evie:
The neurologist wants to be sure she doesn't have a clotting issue before we go ahead with surgery on her eyes. He sent us to a cardiologist who did an EKG and echocardiogram... Evie's heart is great! Yay! Then yesterday they took 8 vials of blood to do testing for any clotting issues. I didn't know such a little girl could have so much blood taken out of her! Praise God for the two sweet ladies who helped draw the blood! They were wonderful! She did not even cry when they put the needle in. She mainly seemed frustrated because she wanted to move around more. This will take "weeks" to get the results back.

As we have said, we are very thankful for all your prayers for Evie. She has something she wants to show you! :o) (By the way, I don't know why there are other video teasers that pop up at the end, but they are not ours--just fyi)
