The best news...

So remember sweet little Aevi? The baby that my Akha friends Joe and Ae had who was born only weighing 500 grams? They were finally discharged to come home this past week and are back at the Akha Youth Development Center and sweet little Aevi is doing really well!

She had another big surgery (6 hours long) to remove more areas of her intestines that were dying (necrotizing enterocolitis) two weeks ago, and she recovered well. Joe and Ae have been in Chiang Mai for the last five months waiting for Aevi to become strong enough and healthy enough to take home and have been on a long emotional rollarcoaster as any parents who have micropremies.

We have prayed and prayed for sweet little Aevi and finally she is home and healthy!

Here she is in all of her cuteness! Breathing on her own and even breastfeeding! Such a little star.
