(From Peggy Helander)
Just wanted to let you know that Ella is doing well. She had an x-ray of her shoulder yesterday. I got to see the before and after x-rays and even my eye can see a big improvement in her bone structure in her shoulder.
I'm not sure why the bone had been thicker and is now back to the thickness of the surrounding bones, but that is what has happened. The blood tests have no sign of infection. So her health is much improved.
She is still tiny, only 8lbs 4 oz, but is now steadily gaining weight (though slower than the doctors like)
She is a sweet little girl. I've had the pleasure of spending time with the family and holding her… (she likes to be held most the time - go figure!!) But, I like that. She is so cute when she stretches while she's sleeping.
Thank you for your prayers… the family feels the Lord's arms around them.

Hello Baby Ella Family!
You don't know me but I am a mom in Bellflower with 6 children and wrote Keith a while ago about your homechurch. I haven't met any of you yet and don't know if I ever will!
But I do know that we are brothers and sisters in the Lord. I read about Ella last week and isn't the Lord faithfull to His word?!!!
I rejoice with you all, I mean that from my heart! It is ALL about Jesus!
