One Thing or Another


When it comes to our daughter, Aria, it seems like if it’s not one thing it’s another. Well, here’s another.

Yesterday, two things happened.

First, Aria had a doctor’s appointment with the ENT specialist and found out her sinus cavities are fine but she has a puss pocket that is surrounded by a membrane in her sinus cavity that the 30 days of antibiotics she was just on was not able to penetrate and so she’ll be going in for another surgery to remove it.

Second, Aria broke her arm last night. It’s considered a “buckle” or incomplete break. She and her brother were fooling around upstairs and she ended up falling on her arm. She could move her fingers and wrist and so we hoped it was just a pulled muscle but this morning we knew it was more than that and Tina took her into urgent care and now she’s in a cast.

Aria is one tough little girl that puts up with a lot. I don’t know how she puts up with it all but God has given her such a sweet, loving spirit with a strong, inner tenacity towards perseverance. We are blessed to have her in our life. She’s been through a lot and we’re really proud of her.
