GOOD REPORT FOR CAROLINE!

Ok. So, I know that I just posted an entry a few minutes ago, but I told everyone that I would post what Caroline's appointment led to.
--> Of course I am on the other side of the phone wondering what the outcome of the situation was. Setting myself up for the worst. I had prepared myself before I picked up the phone to dial her number. I dialed the number, and it took about 3 rings before Corrin answered. I knew before I called that her voice would scream it all, if it was good news or bad news. I wanted good news, but like I said, we have to set ourselves up for the worst. In the past, when we have set ourselves up for good things to happen, it always turns out to be bad.
She answered the phone with a funny "Hello?" The voice that she does when she is in a good mood. Pheww. One thing down. One more to go. "Hey! What did the doctor say?" She answered me with, "Well.." This did not my anticipation any better because she paused after she said it.. "One thing the doctor said that her sucking pads look great!" YAY!!!!!
"Second, he said that because she has been so alert, he thinks her seizures are going away!" YAY!!!!!! THANK GOD!
"Third, they do not know about her brain. They have to go back Tuesday for another checkup and a scan."
Everyone who is reading this, that has been praying for Caroline and our family.
I just want to let you all know that you mean so much to us. I am so happy to know that there are loving people in this world that would take time out of there day to say a prayer for my little sister and my family. You have absolutely know idea how thankful we are for your prayers and you. We thank the churches for the prayers that they have provided for us and putting Caroline on the prayer list at all of these churches that we have been hearing about. To my friends that have been there for me through this all. Especially my softball team. They all witnessed me finding out what happened and what the outcome of the stroke was going to be. They were there for me in my time of need. They stopped what they were doing to comfort me. It didn't matter if they were taking defense, hitting, or just shagging up balls. They came to me to be there for me. Every one of my teammates. Not only have my teammates been there for me, but all of my friends from school and all of my friends that don't go to my school. You have no idea what this means to me and to my family. Thank you for all of Caroline's gifts. I can promise you that she has everything. God has proven his strength. He has a plan for everything and I am so glad that everyone knows it and have prayed to Him to keep our family going and to be with Caroline. Anything is possible with God. He knows whats going to happen next. Not the doctors, not us. HE DOES.
-- Julianna- I want to give a personal thank you to you. You are taking your time to make Caroline something that you don't have to take time out to do. I know that Caroline and my family as well, will treasure what you are painting for her. She will always remember that you did it for her because you loved and cared about her. Thank you so much for everything that you have done and everything that you are doing. I really appreciate it.
If you have any questions about anything, feel free to ask! Stay strong in faith. Keep praying! We have a lot more to go!
