Mallory,

I think of you all the time. I am so happy that the Lord has answered our prayers...again. He is such a provider. Keep your spirits up and I hope to see you soon.

Much love,

Shoe

Mallory, I can"t believe how strong of a person you are.  I am so thankful that everything went as planned yesterday.  I was thinking of you guys every single minute and was anxiously awaiting new updates.  I am so excited to hear your bilirubin is down to 6, that is a miracle!  Now you are on the road to recovery and then you will be at college in no time.  I can"t wait to see you on Thursday, even though it seems so far away.  I will continue to pray for you and your family.  You truly are amazing!

A Psalm of David. Bless the LORD, O my soul: and all that is within me, bless his holy name.

Bless the LORD, O my soul, and forget not all his benefits:

Who forgiveth all thine iniquities; who healeth all thy diseases;

Who redeemeth thy life from destruction; who crowneth thee with lovingkindness and tender mercies;

Who satisfieth thy mouth with good things; so that thy youth is renewed like the eagle"s.

—Psalm 103:1-5

Hi Smith Family,

I know that you all have had a long day.Now it is time to get some rest.I don"t usually take my patients home with me.It is a protective technique I developed early in my nursing career to protect my sanity.However,Mallory has gotten to my heart as she has to many others.She is so courageous & special.This morning when I got home,I had to call back to the floor to ask if she had gone to OR before I could go to sleep.When I woke up,I checked the web site for updates.I  went to my Spanish class tonight & as soon as I got out of class,I called 4E to see if they had heard anything.As soon as I got home,I checked the web site & was excited to learn that she was out of surgery & doing well.I am off work this week but will be checking the web site & checking with co-workers to follow Mallory"s progress.I will be keeping you all in my thoughts & prayers.

Mallory,

You don"t really know me, but I know you. (Bridget use to keep my little girl, Anna Kate (she is now in pre-school). I prayed for you when you received your first liver transplant and I began praying for you again when you were recently admitted back into the hospital. I am never surprised at the miracles God can work. I am so relieved to read that your surgery went well and that you"re on your way to a speedy and full recovery. And to the donor"s family, what a true angel he/she is. They are in my thoughts and prayers as well. Get well!!!

Mallory!  Im so glad to hear that the surgery went well!  I hope that you have a quick recovery.  I wish I could come visit you but unfortunatley Ive been really busy in Auburn and wont be able to come back home until Thanksgiving.  I will continue praying for you and your family.  I hope you get better soon!

-Greg Stoudt

I just read the update.  That is fantastic news.  We will still be praying for a speedie recover.  I am confident that everything will be good.  I can only imagine your relief and joy.  We"ll be thinking of you all.

So very thankful she is now in ICU.  Each updated helped to know just what and how to pray, but this momma is so thankful she is out and now her recovery will begin with a new liver.  Praise God.  Goodnight sweet family.  Blessings

So many people on pins and needles all day...thank you, Lisa, for keeping all of us informed as we all waited to hear about Mallory"s progress. BR down to a 6 already; that gave me goose bumps (an involuntary contraction of the arrector pili muscles, you remember, right Mal?)

Dear Mallory,

John and I are very close friends of Jo and Pete Fitch"s.  Because of them, we have prayed for you during your illness and hospitalizations.  We know that you are as brave as you are beautiful.  We also know that God performs miracles everyday and this is our prayer for you.  Your journal tells about the very wonderful person that you are and about all of your accomplishments.  May God heal you and use you in a  long productive life. You will continue to be in our prayers daily.

Barbara & John Hencshel

Lisa and Mike,

We are so happy to hear things are going well.  Thanks for the good updates.  We have checked this site at least 15 times today.  We know it has been a difficult day for you.  Please know that you have our support and if there"s anything we can do, call us!

Susan and Perry Warren

So glad to hear the great updates on her surgery.  Welcome Izzie!  :)  Prayers that Mallory and Izzie continue to do well!!

Mallory,

Words can"t express how happy I am that your surgery went well!  I am so happy you can begin to recover and feel better!!  Everyone I know is praying for you and your whole family!

Love,

Kristen

TO Lisa & Mike,

I just looked on your web journal & saw Mallory has a LIVER!!!!! I called Hal 1st to let him know then I had to go & get Mallory"s Team Mal 17 t-shirt out to see if it really said 17!!! What a miracle - I think God gave her the number 17 to show everyone around that he does still perform miracles. He knew what it meant long before we did.  The Maulden family is just a phone call away if you should need anything. You are in our prayer"s that recovery will be quick & that you want worry too much. I expect to see a new and updated TEAM MAL 17 shirt !!!!! you go guys - Love, Phyllis

such good news--you have been on my mind an in prayers all day long Mallory.  so glad to hear you have a good liver!

Mallory,

I am not sure if you remember me, but I remember you from high school.  My name is Kara Stringer.  We had PE together your junior (and my senior) year.  I was also on the JV cheerleading squad when you were on Varsity.  I just wanted to let you know you have been in my thoughts, and I wish you the very best.  Good luck to you and your family, I know you will pull through!

Kara

Mal,

I"m praying and thinking about you.  I know you are going to be fine.

Dear Mal,

I don"t know you but I feel as if I do.  I have heard so much about you and your courageous spirit from your aunt Kim.  This has taught me the importance of being an organ donor and has changed my attitude about being one.  You are in our thoughts and prayers.  I will continue to pray for you and your family.  God Bless you.  Sincerely, Rosie Mitchell.
