Sofi got her Heart!!


Over the last few months, well almost a year, a childhood friend of mine has lived in the hospital with her daughter who has been battling heart problems. Just before Christmas they were told that she would need a new heart. I'm not a parent yet but I can start to fathom what it would be like to know that someone else has to lose their little one in order for yours to live.

On Friday evening Sofi was prepped and ready for transplant, and at 2am on Saturday morning Sofi's new heart was put in place!! She had a bit of a rough patch but she's now doing better then expected!!

I'm overwhelmed with excitement and relief for Krissy and Mike!! and Sofi of course!!

There's still a lot that she'll have to go through, but getting to this point was the hardest! Her old heart actually stopped beating just before they put the new one in. Only God has perfect timing like that.

Please keep Krissy and Mike and Sofi in your prayers!!
and smile because Miricles do happen!! Sofi is here today becaues of God's amazing love and perfect timing!!

  1. omg I cried reading this. One for the little one that had to die to save her and second for her and her parents. What joy at the same time. Talk about confusing emotions!!! WOW perfect "god" timing or what though???

    Sending prayers to all involved...
