Keep Her Close


Today Olivia is having strabismus surgery to correct her eyes, which should really help her vision. Please keep her and her family in your thoughts and prayers today. Jodi is really nervous about the surgery. It's an outpatient surgery and a very common eye surgery, but Olivia has been through so much already it is hard for her parents to put her through anything that requires a visit to a hospital. She will have to be put on a ventilator during the surgery, which I'm sure is the most nerve-racking part of the whole thing for her parents. Remember Olivia was on a ventilator the first two months of her life.


I am confident Olivia will sail through this surgery with her usual spunk. I'm excited for her vision to improve to see how this will affect how she "views" the world around her. She's an amazing little girl.
