WE ARE 1 YR OLD!!

Wow, how fast this year flew by! I guess that is to be expected normally and with all that we had going on this past year, I just can't believe she is 1, talking, WALKING and the most beautiful, precious thing I have EVER seen! Her birthday party was fabulous! Thank you all who came to celebrate not only Madelyn turning 1 yr. old, but the fact that we are officially NED(No Evidence of Disease)!!! The status we have been hoping and praying for every single day of these past 9 months!!

We had an appt. w/the Surgeon today, who has scheduled us for surgery on Monday, 10/1 to have Madelyn's port removed!! YEAH! We are so happy, but again concerned w/another surgery w/full anestesia. Please pray that all goes well. We will find out the results of her echocardiogram from today, tomorrow. I will post those results later.

We love you all and stay in touch. We will post updates on Madelyn's progress and of course new pictures for you all to ooh and ahh over, how can you not?!?!:O)

Pray for all of our NB friends who are still going through this journey. Helpful words of encouragement and prayers truly do help!!!

Love you all,
The Bell's
