5-year-old Audrey was born with her lungs connected to her stomach and an incomplete esophagus (Long Gap EA/TEF or Esophageal Atresia). After two big surgeries and 142 days in the NICU in Utah, Audrey finally moved home but has since needed much more surgery, now in Boston. Much of her food still comes through a tube directly into her stomach, and she has had many procedures to help her swallow food, but she is thriving today. Thank you for blessing us with your love and prayers.

June 25
After waiting all day on pins and needles, finally got the call from
Boston Children's about Baby Audrey's case. Dr Manfredi (the
Gastroenterologist) feels it is worth a try to give her the steroid and
needle knife treatments. He said it would be ideal to have her out
there for two months, after her leak is declared completely healed.
Nervous but hopeful this may be the turning point for Audrey. Debating
whether to do it asap or wait until school starts... *sigh* as Marty
McFly would say, this is heavy!
