Mary's Special Visitors

Mary had a bit better day today than yesterday! She woke up this morning with a big smile and was feeling a bit better. Then she had an occupational therapy session with her OT, Mary Sue. They worked on some hand exercises and passing things from one hand to the other. Then Mary got a visit from her neighbor Katherine. Mary also got a special package all the way from Texas! It was from her friend Owen and it had some books in it. Mary was very excited to read them and look at all of the pictures! Mary's favorite word of the day today was "mama"! She kept saying it over and over. Lastly Mary had a special visit from some friends of the Carter Family Ministries. They came and sang special songs for Mary and brought mom and dad a home cooked dinner! It was very special, thank you guys very much! Here are some pictures from the visit:Now it sounds like her surgery will be postponed to Tuesday, but there is still a chance it will go on Monday. We should hear more tomorrow night, we will keep you all posted. Please keep up the prayers!

Hi Ryan, Kate & Mary,

Just a note to let you know that we are thinking of you and praying for the best possible outcome for your little doll!

How are you two doing? The stress of all you are going through must be tremendous - I know you would say you would do anything for Mary but you have to stay strong and healthy for her so hopefully you are taking good care of yourselves as well!
