prayers appreciated

I brought Teagan in for a follow up appointment yesterday (for the urinary tract infection she had been on antibiotics for) and the doctor is ordering an ultrasound and other test of her kidneys (they'll insert dye through a catheter to check if she is having "kidney reflux" - a back flow of urine to the kidney) which are routine in babies this young who've had an UTI. The doctor said there is a 1 in 3 chance that her kidneys or bladder have some damage or that she has the reflux. We're hopeful that this is not the case and that the UTI was just a fluke and that the antibiotics got rid of it completely.

Please pray for us at noon tomorrow as we will be at the hospital. We're feeling a little anxious about it but have peace knowing that God is keeping her in the palm of His hand!

Praying for you and knowing that you will be great through it all. Also, Mark thought that statistic sounded high, especially for girls. That's not official just off-the-cuff thought. :) Love you.
