Day 5
What a busy day we had today...we lost total track of time and learning that this is normal in this place. Maddie was more beautiful today. We met with her doctors-we're learning so much. A Cath procedure is scheduled for tomorrow...risks are low yet it will be her first major thing done here, so we're still nervous. Part of the cath is done for diagnostic reasons and part to fix some areas of her heart. Some decisions can't even be made until they get in there with the cath. So, "game time" decisions tomorrow. Our confidence in the dr performing this is very high and we know we're in the BEST hands. We had a beautiful priesthood blessing for her tonight as well given by Derek and Uncle Jerry, after hours in our dark CICU room. We just need to have faith and trust in God that Maddie will handle this with ease and refocus our thoughts in that He is holding her in His hands. It's difficult to realize that this is so out of ours. Please pray for Maddie, our doctors and nurses, and for Bryan and I. We all will need it.

No matter who I run into in Royal we all say the same thing---we are praying for Bryan, Katie, Maddie, and the Doctors. You are all so loved.
You wonderful blogs are bringing back a flood of memories of Holly's first months- the first heart cath, the rapid heart beat. In fact, it was my Dad that first commented on the fact that she tired so easily when eating, and "panted like a little dog". She was 6 weeks old when we got her diagnosis, she is praying for you too. Keep the faith, we will pray for your doctors to make the right decisions today. Love, Louse

I get into it first thing every morning when I get to work. I can only imagine what you are going thru. The love Maddie has for her will help her to be a fighter.

Dear Katie, Bryan, Cade and Jace,
Congratulations on the birth of beautiful Maddie. We are praying for her and all of you.
Love, Allen, Beth, Dane and Reagen
Katie~
I think about you and Maddie all day, and night...I'm up a lot at night as you can imagine and have a hard time getting back to sleep so I find myself praying for Maddie and peace for you. I know today is your first big day and I know you have more prayers being lifted up than could probably be counted. Remember where to fix your eyes and trust that God is in control. Another verse I came across today seemed appropiate, Matthew 21:22 If you believe you will receive whatever you ask for in prayer! Praise God. Stay strong.
Love,
Krista
