Soon Finlay!

We have had news that Finlay will be on his way home very soon. He has been cleared to travel and should be arriving here very early Thursday morning. We are still so amazed and thankful for his healing.
Just last month, this little boy was facing a sad reality. He could only expect to get gradually weaker, until his body could not cope any more and then he would die. We were prepared to stand by him through that journey - to love and support him no matter what the outcome. We would have make sure Finlay was wrapping in tenderness every moment and that he never had to suffer alone.
 But how wonderful when the story is rewritten! How exciting that now we get to watch him grow stronger and start to enjoy being a little boy! We look forward to encouraging his development and seeing him discover things he never noticed because he was so sick. This little boy is going to have more energy, he is going to be be more alert, and he is going to be making up for lost time. I think Finlay will only continue to amaze us!
 Please keep him in your thoughts as he travels - it's a big journey for a little guy who has recently had major heart surgery. We will feel very happy when we finally get him back here and we can wrap him up in cotton wool for just a little longer! And we can't wait to kiss those pink fingertips and see the difference in him for ourselves. 
We are still short on funds to cover this miraculous surgery which has restored Finlay's hope, but trusting there will be provision for this. If you would like to share in giving Finlay the best Christmas gift ever - LIFE - please contact us.

And we will definitely be posting pictures when our cute boy arrives back. Stay tuned.
