Good Morning to you all, this is Andrea's sister Sara reporting for the Mitchell's. Please be in prayer for Joe, Andrea and especially Ella today. Ella has been choking and gagging on mucus and saliva for a few days now and has continued to spit up as well as vomit. Last night after Andrea and Joe got her home, Andrea called the doctor and they asked her to go ahead and take Ella to the ER at Children's Hospital Dallas. They were there from 11pm and as of 7:15 (yes over 8 hours) this morning waiting to see a doctor. She called me a few moments ago and informed me they have now seen the doctor and are going in for chest x-rays as well as some blood work. I will continue to update as I get information, in the meantime please pray for the doctors wisdom, Ella's precious and fragile little body, and Joe and Andrea's peace and patience. I think it his hard as a parent to even wrap our little brains around what this family is going through as it is every parent's natural instinct to protect their child. When God takes this out of our hands we then are reminded it is really His hands our children lie in. It takes true faith in our Father to know he is protecting us and will see us through these hard times. The waiting is one of the hardest parts, the not knowing is scary for any parent. I ask that you all please pray that God will wrap this family in His loving arms as he guides them through this exhausting experience. Thank you all and I will post again soon.
In His Grip- Sara
