Annabelle is going in to have her neuroblastoma tumor removed at 2:15 pm. Please say a prayer for her. Send supportive, strength filled thoughts to her parents Jon & Nicole. Send prayers to her medical staff that they have the healing power to remove every last bit. Please. She means the world to her family, to our family, to everyone she meets. And if you are so inclined, there is a Facebook group called Annabelle's FAITH.

**{UPDATE: As of Wednesday afternoon Miss Annabelle is resting comfortably in the ICU. They will probably keep her asleep for at least another day or two. The doctors think that they got everything out & we will be awaiting preliminary pathology results at the end of this week or early next week. Please continue praying that the mass is all dead cells & that Annabelle has a quick recovery. THANK YOU so much for your well wishes and continued prayers.}**
**{UPDATE #2: As of Thursday night Miss Annabelle has been moved out of ICU, onto the oncology floor, the chest tube is out, she is awake, and has one IV left to be taken out! This little munchkin is a miracle, she is unstoppable, she is AMAZING! Jon & Nikki are able to hold her and she is chatting up a storm. Happy happy day! Continue your prayers please.}**
**{UPDATE #3: She is UNREAL this little miracle! Here it is Friday afternoon and she is RUNNING, better than that... she is coming HOME! Neuroblastoma has nothing on this beautiful, amazing little girl. Jon says the incision looks pretty intense, it is a C shape from her armpit across her abdomen, but she isn't letting anything hold her back. She has a fire under her butt and she is ready to go home! I just want to say THANK YOU SO MUCH from the bottom of my heart to everyone that sent prayers and healing thoughts her way. I can't even begin to tell you the good it has done for our wonderfully amazing, unbelievably STRONG friends and their beautiful little girl. Small miracles.}**
