Having MRI ! Are you Praying for Avery?

Good morning, Avery is back at the scan. They got her in late but everything is on it's way. Avery was brave and did not have any problems. A little scared and a couple tears. Thats our brAvery! Update: Avery came out of anesthesia well. Crying a little and very mad. Her throat hurts bad. She ate 3 freezes to help make it feel better. They did counts before she went under. Platelets are at 45,000 and Red at 8.5. No transfusion! Yeah! Her platelets went up a bit on their own! She is doing well. We had to stop at Walgreens on the way home. She deserved and earned a gift. $60 dollars later and way to many stickers. Tonight we are going to hang-out and try not to think about things. We are so nervous and scared. In our heart we believe things will go our way tomorrow. I feel light headed and my GI system has had better day's. Tomorrow I plan on having some help for anxiety with Ativan. If I don't I probably will not make it out of the house. BREATH! Thank you for the beautiful postings today and all the prayers. We are so lucky to have such wonderful friends and family. Thank you for being here for us. None of you signed up for it and I'm sure it has been hard on many of you too. Thank You for staying with us. Your support means the world to us! I had to tell you about church yesterday. Tom and I were sincerely touched by Pastor Neuman. A few members and us had a circle prayer for Avery, led by Pastor Neuman. It felt so Awesome that people cared enough to put this together. Thank you Jill. Everyone touched Avery, the Pastor put oil on her for head and we prayed. Pastor Neuman said some great things. In the end he gave Avery his holding cross. He holds this cross all the time during his sermon. He told her when she needed strength to hold it tight and ask God for help. I nearly lost it. She brought it with her to the MRI and held it before she went back. Thank you Trinity and especially Pastor Neuman for the beautiful jester. Now we wait! The scan should be done in about 3 hours. If you have time please say a prayer for Avery. PLEASE PRAY FOR CLEAR SCANS AND FOR AVERY'S HEALTH TO RETURN TO NORMAL SO SHE CAN BE A KID AGAIN! LORD HEAR OUR PRAYERS! Love Team brAvery! http://www.teambraverys.blogspot.com/ Check out the new pictures!
