A Day filled with Cheers!

Cassidy's grand-auntie bought her a couple balloons to cheer CaCa up, she was very happy to see the balloons. Someone also got her a nice strand of Pink Hanging Butterfly and we hung that right with the balloons at where CaCa can see all the time.

Cassidy's heartbeat was very high in the morning but as the blood transfusion began, her pulse rate came back down to around 150+-. Doctor Hopyan is still having hope in CaCa's leg and is trying his best to keep as much of the leg as he can. So let us pray for God to grant extra wisdom to Dr. Hopyan so that he can make the best treatment plan for Cassidy.

Cassidy is such a nice and considerate girl, when the nurses were going to change the dressing on her leg, she asked Dr. Jesse if I'm scared of seeing her bleeding because she worried that the look of her wounds might bother Dr. Jesse. And when Dr. Jesse told her that I've got the bravery from her, I am not scared of her bleeding and Dr. Jesse got to stay by her side when they changed her dressing. It must have been hurting her when they do that or it must not feel good, Cassidy's face twisted a bit when she kept her eyes shut and endured the uncomfy feeling, but she did not even make a sound. Dr. Jesse thinks CaCa is the most brave girl in the world.

Cassidy is still facing surgery at any time now, we need to continue to pray for the healing and functioning of Cassidy's lower leg so that the parts that needs to be removed in the next surgery would be minimized or even to avoid further surgery altogether. Also remember to pray for Mama Carmen and Papa Andy that they have good health, eat and rest well so they have all the energy they need to care for Cassidy.

Dr. Jesse is bringing to Cassidy a few audio storybooks by Robert Munch, if you also have some story tapes, let Dr. Jesse know and we can group them together and bring to CaCa so that she can listen to them from the CD player she has by her bed. When Dr. Jesse left this evening, Cassidy gave us a big smile as she said goodbye to us, and her smile was just like a big sunshine that brightened up the whole room. Let us keep up our prayers for CaCa's quick recovery and be able to show everyone her big sunshine smiles.
