Transplant Report

Well, it was a long and exhausting day for all parties involved, but I'm so thankful to be able to report that both Katie and Kelly are tucked in for the night and resting. Katie is in the ICU and Kelly is up on the surgical floor. It was a very hard day for both of them. The Lord graciously granted us an uneventful and uncomplicated transplant. Let the healing begin!

I thought it would be great if we could do an email blitz for Kelly. I'll need your help. If you'd like to participate, please click on the link below. You'll need to type "Kelly Lamere, Baird 693" in the subject line. It would be best to write between now and 2:00 p.m. on Friday as emails aren't delivered on the weekend. Any emails that might arrive after Kelly is discharged will get snail mailed on to her by the kind volunteers at the hospital. Kelly has given a most precious gift and deserves to be recognized and honored. I'd be grateful if you all could help shower Kelly with words of love, encouragement, and appreciation.


I'm sure that Katie would also love to hear from people. Just type "Katie Smith, ICU M306" in the subject line. Katie will have a new room number in a couple days when she is able to leave the ICU but, again, those great volunteers will track her down and see that she gets her mail. Of course, you can also communicate with Katie through our family email address: smiths@smithfamilyfarmvt.com.

My eyes are refusing to stay open, so I will sign off. Many, many thanks for all the prayers, calls, and emails. The Lord has used you all to bless and encourage us! Thank you!
