Finally!

Today we finally heard something back from the Dr.s at U of M. It wasn't the news we were looking forward to hearing though. We know that Kasi's case is rare and very difficult. What we didn't know is that when you have a case like this it is hard to find someone who has experience and knowledge of what and how to do things. The Dr.s have ideas and all of the "fixes" for Kasi are too risky compared to her symtoms. Kasi currently has purple to black feet and toes and pain everyday. We were hoping to find something to relieve this and it seems like fixing the problem would be the best case senario. The Dr.s at UofM feel that what they would have to do to fix her aorta would have GREAT risk. We knew it has some risk, but they way they are talking they want her to have greater symtoms. Like hypertension and kidney failure. Right now that is good in her, so they are more on the reactive because of risk. I know that Kasi can't live like this forever.....so we are praying. Praying for healing that is! and for guidance. We know God has a plan for her and we are confident that His timing is perfect. We just need to rest in that and move forward looking and seeking His face through this. Kasi will learn a little more as will the rest of us as we move forward. She is really not happy about the decision, but she also knows that her Dr. is looking for second opinions. I too emailed Dr. Nierotti, who did her orginal surgery, and he is looking forward to getting her information and hopefully he will be able to give a little advice too. We know that God is bigger and in control of ALL parts of life.
