It is great to hear Elani belly laugh. She has been doing that more often lately and seems to be adjusting well. In the last few days she has tried saying some words too which is so encouraging. Her first surgery is scheduled for October 5th. We should only have to be in the hospital 1 night if all goes well and then the rest of the recovery will be at home. Not sure what we are in for as far as recovery but are expecting things to go pretty smoothly.
For those of you who expressed interest in donating to help out Elani's orphanage, thank you so much! Any amount will go a long way! The exchange rate in China is almost 7:1 so that means our US dollars can be stretched really far. :)
It is really simple to donate:
Please go to http://www.lovewithoutboundaries.com/
Click on the DONATE tab.
Under CATEGORY select Orphanage Assistance Fund
Put in the amount you would like to donate.
Then it is important in the NOTES section to put in "For the Suixi Orphanage Assistance Fund"
*This is Elani's orphanage and the money will go directly there. They are also trying to arrange a surgery team to visit sometime soon to help do surgeries on any children there who need them. :)
Thanks again for any help and feel free to contact me at abbyspear@msn.com if you have any questions.
