Pappa likely spent all his free time at the hospital...I was lucky to get a quick text and a picture of the "China Doll" with the new digit location and a quick note that said the xrays of the work looked good!

Last pic was of Wee Darci smiling like a Cheshire cat!  Be a while for recovery I'm sure but what a Christmas present for the Keifer family!

Thank you, Jesus!!!

PS: Don't ask how I did this but I THINK I GOT the pic off text to my computer to imagur...
 

[Doc Nock]

A bit harder to stomach so don't look if you're squeemish..

God has indeed embodied talent in today's surgeons...

 

There was a ditty when I was growing up about "Babby got a new pair of shoes"... in this sitution, "Baby got a brand new thumb!"        

[Lowrider]

Beautiful little Angel. Prayers for no pain and rapid healing.

[Doc Nock]

She's home...Got one last text from Keef..said Darci had some reaction to one of the elements in her anesthesia and it can be totally fatal, called
"steel jaw" or something and they got it reversed by her teeth and jaw are quite sore...

Seems like the LORD stood in the gap for her.  Prayers that continues thru rehab!

Got this pic this evening from Keefer  

[Keefer]

Praise God  everything went well and she is Home !  

   Thanks to all you dedicated prayer warriors who lifted up our Darci girl during her surgery and there was a hick up on the anesthesia that gave her a Masseter spasm where her jaws locked up and they couldn't pry them open from a anesthesia called Succinylcholine and can be Fatal but our Lord was there no doubt and guided the anesthesia folks on a reversal and got her back on track so to speak.

    She has a sore jaw and teeth hurt a bit but this morning I am playing Daddy nurse and she is on her second cup of shaved  ice with flavor !

   She  is doing "GREAT" might I ad and sweet as can be !

  Sorry I have been trying to post an update but Friday our middle daughter (Kaci) somehow posted a video of herself on YouTube and in the process our email account on our home PC got messed up and I couldn't get on here with out my password which gives me a fit whenever I get logged off?
   

  Lucky for me my wife loaned me this hand held devise and Ishe was able to log me on it somehow?


    Thanks to Doc and Fred for putting up some pictures for me and this is True friendship having friends and "Brothers" of the same faith in Christ Jesus and as our Darci will soon be able to do for the first time in her life she and I give you a

[Doc Nock]

Password?  Yikes... That's rough when that happens...

Glad Fred put up the latest pic...took me forever to send that other'n to myself from my phone and then edit it and add to IMagur...

YIKES! Kaci is posting vids to utube! Kids!  I couldn't do that to save my life!

I heard it said, that the reason Anesthesiologist get paid so much, is that they "ALMOST" make you dead, then bring you back!      

Whatever they earn is fine with me.     :eek:    

Long ago I saw a list of what they gave me the first operation I had (due to a bunch of allergies we weren't sure)...and the list of items were ALL "deadly" stuff!

Good gracious!

Again, prayers of thanksgiving to our Lord for her safety, and for great things to come!!

   

Merry Christmas

[Cyclic-Rivers]

Great News!

[Keefer]

Praise be to our Lord and Savior and what a gift He gave!

  We can Never out give His Love and He surely was there for our Darci girl!

  We finally got our PC back to working order and I can log on here now to give an update on Darci!

  If you could of seen her excitement on Christmas morning and just amazes me how she opened most her presents all by herself while wearing a cast ! Truly a Miracle to see how well she is doing after her Friday operation!

  We had to keep sitting her in the recliner and prop her arm up cause she started a little swelling by letting her left arm droop down so today I have to try to install velcro in her arm sling so she keeps it up some due to sliding out so much.
  I tried duct tape but my wife thought it was "tacky" but it did help me 32 years ago when my co workers wanted to actually see my hand with 8 pins holding it on and having a little too much of that liquid spirits in me at my work place Christmas party !
  Several of my coworkers had helped me tape my bandages back on and duct tape was a good fix lol!    :rolleyes:  

  This little girl is doing so well and we Thank You all for those continued prayers!

[Sam McMichael]

It seems that your family has had a most blessed Christmas. We will continue to pray that her recovery will be quick and complete.

Prayers sent for the whole family. From Michigan

[Keefer]

Just giving an update to the "Prayer and Praise" warriors here that little Darci is doing just fine!
  She has been in no pain what so ever and wiggling her fingers which were swelled a little and bruised at first when the Dr. worked the joints in her hand while she was getting her first digit moved to the thumb position.
 
   What an Awesome God we have for giving the Dr.s the steady hands to perform His work!
  God is good all the time and thank you all for continued prayers.
  She will get the cast cut off and pin removed on Feb.2nd on a Friday Lord willing.
  So please keep her in your daily prayers if you will and as always God Bless each one of you as well.

Today the cast comes off and they see if the graph took!  

Wife and one daughter plus Darci went to take the Wee one to find out how it went and remove the cast...

PRayers are afloat!

[1/4 away]

I just received a text message from Keefer .  Darci had the cast taken off today and is doing great. God has definitely answered our prayers for Darci now has a thumb where once there was none. Thank you Lord !!

[Doc Nock]

YOu're quick, Fred!!!  Got those too and Keith said that she'd been wigglin that new "thumb" some inside the cast so I guess that means the graft took and nerves & muscles are connecting...

She took the pics herself with her I-pad and sent them to her Daddy I hear...kids today... Growing up with all the technology sure doesn't hurt!  

Thank you, Lord!

Gotta love the smiley face on her finger!
