Looking Good

As horrible as this x-ray looks, it's actually much better than the first where the bone is broken and not aligned, or displaced. This was taken on Monday of last week, exactly one week after Linsey broke her arm. The Human body is amazing. Children especially have an incredible ability to heal. This bone actually grows together and over time, all that will remain is a small bump.

Yesterday we went to another doctor appointment and we were thrilled to hear that Linsey has made "remarkable progress" in one week. Her x-rays show that new bone is already beginning to grow. She is more comfortable now because things aren't moving around in there anymore. She has also started to regain slight movement in her wrist and thumb, enough that her doctor was quite surprised. All branches of the nerve are working now, not perfectly, not great, but working. We are SO grateful! With her drastic improvement in one week, the doctor thinks she may be better much sooner than the original 2-4 months.

We are so grateful for all of our family and friends that have been keeping Linsey in their prayers. She is very loved and has great faith. I know that her progress is not coincidence or good luck. This is an answer to our prayers and fasting, a blessing for our family.

That is amazing! I guess that goes along with The Incredible Family idea huh? Super Healing Powers? Hehehe, I'm so glad she is healing correctly and quickly. We've been so worried about her.

What a relief! What a miracle it all is. I'm so glad to hear that she is not only healing well but very fast! The power of prayer and fasting is so amazing.
