Ari's procedure went well today. Didn't take that long, and it's cute as a button! That nasty tube is gone! I'll put a pic on for all to see... just for the pride of a proud dad. And she did so well. The real reason I'm writing now is 2 fold. First, please, along with any other child you see in need, pray for them all. But at this moment please pray for this little boy. His name is Brayden Jacob, and he is a near drowning victim... tough little boy... fighting for his life. Now I know for a fact that there are over 400 folks who visit this site regularly. I see 400 prayers coming Jacobs way. Want to do something for Arianna and the Foors and Albrings and every other victim of near drowning that makes us feel a little better? We won't know it... but pray, pray for all those kids who are the victims of the number one killer of children of the age of 5... water. Take a second and visit the website, please, his parents will see that you checked in if even for a minute and they will feel a little bit better, but then pray. His carepage is braydenscarepage . Secondly.. I don't know even half of you that check on Ari, but I know that I love to see your names and feel your hearts. Is there one of you that would please post a message telling me that they saw a news report on the t.v., an article in the newspaper, or even a radio commercial or sign that spoke to or addressed the issue of pool/water safety? Even one in depth issue on water safety concerning little kids? You see.. everytime one little kid drowns or near drowns... it hits me and Sarah, and all the other parents of near drowning or lack of oxygen victims, like a ton of bricks. So please, on top of another story of a little boy who needs prayer, would someone please set my heart at ease and post saying they have seen or heard something about pool safety this spring. Sorry about the soapbox... Brayden hit me hard for some reason. Going back to praying for that little boy now... please visit his page braydenscarepage and let them know you care.
