Its Official...Sahara

[Doozer61]

Prayers work!

My granddaughter Sahara was born in Dec and spent the first two weeks of her life in the hospital. You may have read about her in BAW's journal. She was diagnosed with OTC (a disorder that does not allow your body to break down proteins, with a 50-50 mortality rate by age 5) and AVM, a malformation of the artery in your brain.

She had a specific genetic test done about 6 weeks ago that turned out to be inconclusive for the OTC. Which means, she does not have it!

And today, being 8 months old, she underwent an MRI that involved shooting dye into her brain to show the exact area of the AVM. And guess what? They couldn't find any evidence of it!

Thanks to all of you that have held her in your prayers.

Today, I am truly blessed to have 3 healthy and adorable grandchildren!

I am not old enough!

However, Shannon is Donna's daughter, so she is mine by proxy! And I am "Nana" to the little ones!
