Happy Father’s Day
Today is Fathers Day. We managed to escape with Aria for the day after seeing Dr E and have a blast of Gentamicin. Gent isn’t the preferred choice for treating Aria because it isn’t very kidney friendly.
Our church family met this afternoon for a prayer meeting. It was a really blessed time. Lots of tears and really uplifting prayers. Basically we shared our struggles and gave thanks for how far Aria has come. It was nice to be honest with what we are going thru and how things are difficult and we really want to be in Omaha. We split into groups and talked with God and we really felt God’s presence.
Interestingly Aria, Asher and Tre were in our prayer group.  Aria and Tre were playing together and Aria was showing him her NuNu and then decided with Tre being one now it was time for him to start learning his colours. “Green” “Green” Aria said as she point to her NuNu Juice looking at Tre. I thought to myself that yes indeed it was green and it hasn’t been green for a long time. Green is good because it means bile flow and because it was clear too which is also good.
Also Happy Father’s Day Hamish. I feel particulary blessed to have Hamish as my partner in this strange, painful, crazy and joyful journey. Hamish is an excellent father and put 110% into his kids and our life together.
Hopefully tomorrow might bring no temps and a trip home to stay.

Good luck for coming Home! Hamish is an awesome dad and you both make a great well oiled machine. I know you can achieve anything together. x x x

We have been following your blog for a while now after seeing it on Samuel’s page. We pray that you’ll know God’s leading each step of the way and that you’ll know that no matter what happens….God has allowed it and HE’ll carry you through. Praying that God will continue working and that most of all HE’ll save your children for HIS kingdom.
Will keep in touch off and on as the Lord leads but our thoughts and prayers are with you all.
Greetings at this time,
Gordon & Coralie McLay
