What a Way to End the Trip!

One last amazing update...

This afternoon we received an email saying that the baby had been approved for surgery in the United States!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!  This is such a huge miracle and blessing.  Our hearts are overjoyed.  At this point the group who will be providing the care wishes to remain anonymous.  We aren't sure if we are allowed to post pictures of him or not, but when we can we will.  He is such a cutie!!!  

We were very surprised by this news as typically a group will not bring a child over that has more than one medical need. Since he may have down syndrome, there might be other medical issues the come along with that, so we thought that they would say no.  When you see this mother and father look at their baby, your hearts would have been breaking as ours were.  The love him so much and are so sweet with him.  

Please pray that things go smoothly on the Cambodian end, that he gets a medical visa, and please pray for his family.  This will be a big deal for the mom to come to the United States away from the rest of her family.  Oh my gosh, we are so happy right now!!!!

We will keep you updated!
Thanks!!!!

  3. Kacie and family,
    Wow, what an adventure you've been on. I can only imagine the challenges of travelling with your 3 kids, not to mention the incredible mission you are on. If anyone can do it, you can. What an international education your children are getting! We can't wait to hear all the details.
    We will continue to pray for the little boy who is to get the surgery...may all the logistics work out soon.
    Safe travels home!
    Love,
    Deborah

  4. We serve a most gracious G-D. Thank You, Father, for Your compassion for this boy and for Your willingness to send Him love from America, that our precious friends would be allowed to be Your hands and feet. We bless Your Name which is above all Names. Your Name is healing and provision. Your Name is peace. You are the G-D who sees, the One who is always there. You are far above all things and greatly to be praised. Holy and mighty are your works. Just and true are Your ways. What is man that You are mindful of him. You own the cattle on a thousand hills, yet you care if one sparrow falls to the ground. You care about this little boy, so much that You sent people from around the world to bring Him to the foot of Your throne. May we never cease to thank You for Your greatness. May his family see Your light and love and grace, and may they see their way to Your heart through the blood of Your Son. In Jesus' Name, amen.
