Please pray for our Katie Grace

Recently we discovered that Katie Grace has lost hearing in her right ear. The fact is that it is amazing because we don't know when, why or how and she has no other issues that go along with hearing loss. I took her to UMC yesterday to see Dr. Eby and she is now scheduled for surgery March 4 at UMC. God is so good and as it turns out a sweet friend is Dr. Eby's nurse. This really helped my feelings about the whole situation, funny how a familiar face can be such comfort. The surgery is exploratory with a possible stapedectomy. He feels like it is caused by a problem with one of the tiny bones behind her ear drum but won't know for sure until they get in there and see. The GREAT news is that there is a 90% success rate with this procedure! Please just pray for her to keep her upbeat spirit and for the doctor and nurses surrounding the surgery. Katie Grace has been wonderful and really taken this as something new and different about herself. Gotta love her!!
