Lauren Hilsheimer

Please pray for the Hilsheimer Family, their newborn Lauren was born in Dallas last week and has some heart issues. She had a major surgery on Friday. Here is Kirsten's latest journal entry from their blog. Please pray for healing for Lauren and patience & rest for Mark & Kirsten.

Mark had quite the Father's Day gift today. They doctors weaned Lauren off the paralytic and she was opening her eyes and moving around when we got to the hospital this morning. They are also weaning one more of her heart meds (dopamine), weaning her off the vent (she should be extubated tomorrow :) ), and have started some feedings through a tube that goes from her nose into her tummy. She is tolerating the feedings because she had a little poop earlier - meaning her gut is working! We just could not be happier and more blessed with her progress. We know that the LORD has his hand completely in her healing. I am so thankful for everyone we have praying for her. The Lord has stated when 2 or more people gather in prayer, He is present.
Look forward to writing more good news tomorrow!
