Dear Angie:
Let me preface this email by saying I think your blog is amazing and from what I am able to gather from your blog, you and your family are amazing too! I truly applaud your faith and wish I could have the same (although it is something I am working on). It is very strange to email you since I do not "know" you, but I guess that is what blogging is all about, right?
Anyway, I stumbled upon your prayer blog and am now calling out for my own prayers. My daughter is five years old and lives with complex cardiac congenital heart disease and will be having her third and last open heart surgery tomorrow morning. It is going to be a long six hours...whew...I will be thrilled when the day is over. We expect nothing but good things tomorrow but it is going to be a LONG ROAD and a three week hospital stay expected. I try not to think of what may be or what could happen...
Ava is an amazing child and she fills my heart with such love and goodness...she makes me want to be a better person! :) So please, say a special prayer for my girl, a smooth operation and a healthy recovery!
One of my favorite quotes is from the movie Cast Away..."I have to keep breathing, because tomorrow the Sun will rise, and who knows what the tide will bring?"
Thank you Angie!

I am also a heart mom so this hit very close to home. We are currently awaiting my daughters first open heart surgery in May. Ava is precious. I will add her to my daily prayers. I will be thinking about you both tomorrow.
MANY prayers sent your way!
Blessings,
Crystal
