Eye Surgery


This sweet little girl is having eye surgery.

Ellis Anne was born with an eye condition known as nystagmus.



Our little Ellis Anne is having eye surgery on Wednesday in Little Rock. As some of you may know, Ellis Anne has poor vision. We don't think it is as bad as we once had when she was younger, but we do know that she cannot see very far. You can walk in her room when she is in her crib and she does not know you are there. The surgery is supposed to help the movement of her eyes, but not her vision per say. However, if the surgery helps her eyes work together in their movement, then we are praying that her vision WILL BE BETTER in the NAME OF JESUS. Ellis Anne also has nystagmus, often called dancing eyes or a constant movement of the eyes. Nystagmus is not curable; so this surgery will not help her nystagmus.

We will be in Little Rock for three days as we have a pre-op and post-op appointments on Monday and Wednesday. Surgery is on Tuesday.

Ellis Anne is no stranger to surgeries. She had 2 open heart surgeries before she was 5 months old. However, mom is still a little nervous as always.

Please keep us in your prayers. Praying for a improved vision.

Thanks!

Stephanie

  2. Will be praying for Ellis Anne and your family during this trying time. Praying for success with the surgery and for God to guide the surgeons to do all that they can do for her little eyes to be the best they can be. I enjoyed the easter pictures very much, just haven't had time to comment.
