all praise and honor and glory


Gaby is ECMO cannula free. She had a great night after coming off ECMO. This morning her surgeon removed her cannulas and the tube in her chest that was draining from surgery last week. Her vent settings are being turned down as she is doing beautifully. Her oxygen saturation is in the 70s! She looks great.

Her PICU doctor looked straight at me this morning and said, "Shelley, she is better. We fixed her. She is doing great." What reassuring words. I believe that God fixed her, but He sure did use the staff and docs here to do that!

So the Browns are on the road to recovery here in Indy. God, pour out your mercy on us as we place our hope in you.

No one can say it better than Him...

Rejoice in hope, be patient in tribulation, be constant in prayer. Romans 12:12

I pray that the eyes of your heart may be opened in order that you may know the hope to which He has called you, the riches of His glorious inheritance and His incomparably great power for all who believe. Ephesians 1:18

May Gaby's continuing story lead to eyes being opened to the ultimate hope we have in Christ, our salvation and life with Him.

  1. Can't stop crying! I bet you cannot wait to hold her. That is so awesome. This morning Reagan asked me how Gaby was breathing. And I told her she was breathing better and she said, "no what number is she breathing?" :) I told them you may get to hold her today and Jackson just happened to be listening to "Our God is an awesome God" on CD and he says..."Our God is awesome because he is making Gaby feel better!" It was precious.

  8. I have been amazed before by what the hand of God has done, but it never ceases to put me in awe of our Creator when he shows his healing hand. I can not read this without tears filling my eyes and chocking my words. Faith and prayers can heal. Will continue to keep Gaby Girl in my thoughts and prayers.
