Baby Katie

I have another request for you all. My friend Bobbie also has a baby in need of some prayers. She delivered her baby girl Katie yesterday in Mitchell. The baby's oxygen levels were low, so they wanted to send them to Sioux Valley so the baby could be in their NICU. No one wanted to take them because of the weather, but they must have finally decided they had no choice and they finally got them there. Once they arrived at Sioux Valley, they found out that two of the valves in her heart were backwards. So they flew Bobbie and Katie to Minneapolis. Katie will hopefully have surgery in 5 days or so to correct it. She will have to stay there for several weeks.

Her husband had to stay behind to get their other two kids situated before he could leave, but from what I understand, he is on his way to the cities right now. I hope the roads are not bad and he makes it there safely. Please say a prayer for Katie and her family!!!

So I did a search on surgery to see if you had mentioned Colter's surgery before, but this post about Katie came up instead. How is she doing??

Katie is doing great. You would never guess that she has had any problems. I know they were taking her for a checkup recently, but I have not heard the outcome. It must have been good though.
