Below is the Email I sent out to our church earlier today. Please be praying with us. Thank you!
***************************************
Greetings,
The Roises would like you all to pray for us and our daughter Michelle (11 months old) as we prepare for a surgery on her cleft soft palate, that is scheduled for May 3rd. The procedure is necessary to make sure she will be able to speak properly, and is not exceptionally dangerous, but does involve monitoring in ICU after the surgery for one or two nights because of the potential for airway obstruction due to swelling. Once she comes home we will have to protect the area at the back of her throat that has been operated on--the area is rather fragile at first. This means no solid foods and keeping things out of a toddler's mouth (it'll be easy...yeah right).
Specific things to pray for, please:
1. That the surgery would go well and heal quickly.
2. That Michelle would handle everything well, herself.
3. That we will be able to effectively protect the area after the surgery.
4. That God would help us to trust Him through a scary circumstance.
Thank you in advance.
In Christ,
Peter Roise

Dear Roises,
As a mother who has been there done that with a cleft palate repair. I know all the emotions and all the thoughts that are running through your head.
We're so lucky to have the Lord in our lives, I can't imagine having gone through all we've gone through with Rachel over the last 18 months if He hadn't been there, every step of the way, guiding and leading us and all of Rachel's doctors.
Please know that I'm going to mark this date on my calendar and will be praying for little Michelle, and you both as her parents.
If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me....DarcyFras@aol.com
In His Love,

Praying! It's never fun to have a toddler under-the-weather. :(
God is good!
