According to the mother, Sarah, she and her husband Chris were very happy when they discovered that she was pregnant with their second child.

And just like all parents, they were overjoyed when their daughter came into the world with no complications.

It wasn’t until they took her home that they realized something was wrong. Their daughter Sloan was born fit and healthy, but when she was two months old her parents noticed that she was becoming a little chubby, especially around her belly…Click Here To Continue Reading>> …Click Here To Continue Reading>>

 

Their baby ate normally and was developing the way she should. But when her big belly continued to grow bigger and bigger, the parents became more and more worried.

Instead of taking Sloan to the family’s regular pediatrition, Sarah and Chris took her to the hospital for a four month check up. Unfortunately, the doctor made a sad discovery, and gave the couple some news that no parent wants to hear. Most parents would probably be devastated by the bad news, and maybe even try to find a way to accept it – but this couple didn’t want to give up without a fight.

When Chris and Sarah took Sloan to the Childrens’ Hospital, they were overcome with worry. They realized that their daughter’s belly wasn’t growing in a normal way, but at the same time they hoped the doctor would give them a reassuring diagnosis.

When Chris and Sarah took Sloan to the Childrens’ Hospital, they were overcome with worry. They realized that their daughter’s belly wasn’t growing in a normal way, but at the same time they hoped the doctor would give them a reassuring diagnosis.

But instead, their daughter was diagnosed with a rare liver disease called biliary atresia, which blocks and damages bile ducts. The bile builds up in the liver, which eventually breaks under the pressure if the disease is left untreated. Sloan’s short life had hit a huge hurdle. Sarah said: “Here we are thinking we’re bringing her in for peace of mind, and instead it was devastating. Everything we dreaded came true.” Sloan returned home from the hospital, but she quickly had to return.

Just 1 week after the first diagnosis, the family returned to the hospital’s intensive care unit. The only thing that could save the little girl’s life was a liver transplant, and she didn’t have much time.

Neither Sarah or Chris matched their daughter’s blood group, O, so they told their story to everyone they could, hoping to find a donor.

Just 1 week after the first diagnosis, the family returned to the hospital’s intensive care unit. The only thing that could save the little girl’s life was a liver transplant, and she didn’t have much time.

Neither Sarah or Chris matched their daughter’s blood group, O, so they told their story to everyone they could, hoping to find a donor.

The rules surrounding living donors and transplants are very strict. The donor has to be a friend or family member, and they must be willing to donate, for free. The donor also has to go through a psychiatric evaluation, and of course they have to be physically healthy. The family’s close friend, Jake, saw the family’s plea for help on social media and shared their story on Facebook.

That’s when an unexpected hero stepped forward. The stranger was a perfect match in more than one way, since he was used to saving lives. It was Jake’s brother, Steve, who came to the rescue. Steve is an American Army veteran and has been a police officer for 18 years.

That’s when an unexpected hero stepped forward. The stranger was a perfect match in more than one way, since he was used to saving lives. It was Jake’s brother, Steve, who came to the rescue. Steve is an American Army veteran and has been a police officer for 18 years.

He is 40 years old and in good shape. He hadn’t needed to visit a doctor in over a decade and had never spent a night in the hospital – until now. After Steve passed a series of tests, the doctors immediately removed a piece of his liver. They took around 20 percent of the organ before placing it back in Steve’s body.

At that point, Steve hadn’t even met little Sloan, whose life he was about to save. “Fortunately, here, I was in a good position. My wife and I talked and it was really a no-brainer — if you can help a 4-month-old and potentially save her life, it’s something you’re going to do,” Steve says.

Thankfully, both surgeries were a success.The liver is one of the only organs in the body that can heal itself, so Steve’s liver will recover. And as Sloan grows up, her new liver will grow strong.

We need to be careful in what we eat and not only physically, but also spiritually and psychologically. If we eat healthy food physically, we will have a proper growth and development, and our body will be supplied with good ingredients for its normal functioning.

But, we also need to be careful what we insert into our bodies. Sometimes people accidentally swallow something they shouldn’t. This was not the case with this drunk man.

Per reports, the surgeons were stunned when they needed to remove a steel cup from a man’s stomach, which they believe was initially inserted into his ‘behind…Click Here To Continue Reading>> …Click Here To Continue Reading>>

 

An unnamed man was reporting stomach pains for several days and no treatment seemed to work, despite seeing multiple doctors, according to The Post. He then saw Dr. Lal, who did an X-ray and discovered the cup inside him. READ FULL STORY HERE>>>CLICK HERE TO CONTINUE READING>>>

The man was then rushed to surgery where surgeons successfully removed a cup the size of a hand from what appears to be an incision in his stomach.

According to The Post, video shows the procedure which begins with one doctor cleaning the stomach area before carefully removing the silver cup with the bottom of the object facing up. Medical staff appears to be in disbelief as the surgeon holds up the tumbler for the camera.

The man, who works as a laborer, has recovered well, according to reports. The medical professionals have hypothesized that the cup reached his stomach after being inserted up the man’s ‘behind’. Doctors said the man got extremely drunk with three strangers after returning from a grocery store, where he had gone to get vegetables. By the time he sobered up, the unknown people were not present, and doctors aren’t sure if the man shoved the cup up his rectum himself or if he was assaulted.

“We know without a shadow of a doubt, our baby is with Jesus,” Corrie added.

Corrie says that her daughter’s name means, “God’s Thoughtful Princess,” and that is exactly what Sadie was. She was the perfect princess, the best reflect of what her name embodies.

“And she really was that—always expressing gratefulness and love for God and other people. She would light up a room with her smile; she walked with a skip in her step. I’ve never met a more joyful child who loved God with all her heart.”

Sadie’s father, Tracy Andrews, said that he’s happy, appreciative and grateful for the three years that he along with their family got with spend with their precious Sadie, and reflected on the many lessons his daughter was able to teach him about life and love.

“She taught me about being happy and loving life and loving people,” Tracy said. “At 3 years old, there’s no preconceived notions. To her, everybody was good. She didn’t see the bad. She just loved people and it didn’t matter what they did.”

Lance and Kara Latham are the owners of Bruster’s Real Ice Cream, the shop where Sadie tragically drowned on Saturday. They released a Facebook statement on Sunday, extending their deepest condolences for the family’s loss. READ FULL STORY HERE>>>CLICK HERE TO CONTINUE READING>>>

“As the owner of the Auburn Bruster’s, our deepest condolences go to the family of the child who tragically died Saturday. They are acquaintances of ours and have been regular customers. We are truly heartbroken that this happened. Our thoughts also are with our young crewmember who tried to revive the child. Like all of us, he is quite shaken. The entire Bruster’s family is horribly saddened by this tragic accident.”

They encouraged others in the community to continue praying for the Andrews family.

Sadie’s uncle, Chad Vermillion, also organized a YouCaring campaign on the family’s behalf.

“The body of Christ is powerful when we act together and if we can help alleviate their burden let’s do so,” Vermillion wrote in the fundraiser’s description. “Above all else, please pray for my dear sister Corrie and brother-in-law Tracy. The pain is insurmountable right now.”

Corrie says God used Sadie the morning that she died, to prepare the mother of six for the grief that lay ahead.

Sadie was attached to a blanket from her grandmother, that she slept with every single night. On Saturday morning though, Sadie put the blanket in a bag and told her mom that she no longer needed it, and wanted to give it away.

“Looking back, it’s as if she knew she wouldn’t need it anymore.”

One thing is certain, Sadie Grace brought more joy to this world in her three short years than many of us can fathom in our entire lifetime. She exuded the love of Jesus, and her family takes comfort in knowing that she is Home with Him now.

Praying for peace that surpasses all understanding, and healing for every single person whose life was touched by this beautiful little angel.
