Out of testing

Haley woke up very quickly after testing which is wonderful. Michelle and I can't help but be a little stressed after past experiences. We will not be able to coordinate all of the doctors until tomorrow morning to discuss the plans for surgery. As information becomes available to me, I will share on the blog. It amazes me to watch Haley interact with all of the doctors, nurses, and techs. People stop by from other pods just to meet her. She has so much going on in her scans, but we see the poise and grace that she shows. I wish I had an ounce of her courage and optimism...truly amazing. Talk to you soon.

Dear Pete and Michelle,
I sit here thinking of how you must be feeling after receiving the results of Haley's tests. I'm sure there is a flood of emotions like fear, anxiety and exhaustion that you have to fight. I am so sorry. There is no earthly explanation for all of this. But...you do not have to go through this alone. We don't know all the details of this week, but we know the one who will take you through and work it out for you. You are surrounded by friends and family who are on their knees for you. Just as Moses needed his arms to be held up to win the battle, we stand beside you and do the same for you. Where there is fear, we ask God to replace it with courage and peace. Where there is exhaustion, we ask God to renew your energy. Where there is sickness, we ask God our mighty physician to reach down and heal prescious Haley's body. He is your provider, battle fighter, peace giver, healer, and friend.
He loves you and so do we.
Glenn and Bonnie

I second Bonnie's prayers and will continue to be on my knees praying for Haley and your family.

Love,
