[tri-med] Keren's surgery postponed again....

Dear all,
Keren is nine months old today!  And a special treat is that it's also 
my parent's wedding anniversary--so an all the more memorable date!

Wanted to update you all quickly, too, so you can be praying for us.  
Keren had a cold this past week (fairly minor, normal), but then she 
spiked a fever yesterday.  We went in to the doctor this morning and a 
blood test confirmed a bit of infection (probably a slight ear 
infection, but her ear canals are so tiny the doc couldn't see to tell 
for sure--not surprising!), so she's now on antibiotics.  Her doctor 
was pretty confident she'll knock the infection soon, but 
unfortunately....we now have to reschedule her jaw hardware removal 
again....

The "jaw doctor" is trying to rearrange her surgeries so that Keren can 
get in within a week or two, so if you could be praying that this will 
work!  We're so tired of it getting put off and Keren's growing so 
much, that the hardware in her jaw can't stay in too much longer.  If 
it does, it will affect the growth of her jaw.

Anyway, that's the scoop :(  Kiddo's doing better this 
afternoon--interested in her toys right now and sleeping well--so 
hopefully she'll kick this bug soon.

Thanks again for your thoughts and prayers!
