Please Pray For Raya

UPDATE: We are home. Raya's CT scan was clear. She got to come home with a concussion and a sore little head. We have to wake her every 3 hours, and every time I do, I thank God that I am rocking my baby at home, and not in a more tragic situation in the hospital. We are so lucky, I can't say that enough.

Raya (who only stands alone for about 2 seconds) had pulled up on the gate that was at the stairs - the lock popped open, and she literally just went face first, head over feet, down 15 steps. I saw her pull up, but right before I got to her, the gate opened and she fell. It was without a doubt, the worst 3 seconds I think I've ever had. Those gates aren't completely child proof. It was truly a "something horrific is about to happen to my baby - mom moment." I wish I could get the image out of my head.

Anyway, I am more thankful than you will ever know for your prayers, comments, and encouragement...it means the world. I will check in again, hopefully w/ some pics of our sweet little trooper :).

------------------------------------

Raya fell down a flight of stairs - she is vomiting and not herself. We are on the way to the hospital...please pray for her if you get a second...

Oh Kate! Praying hard for your precious Raya. Praying also for you and the whole family, as well as the doctors.

May God give you overwhelming peace and comfort.

Praying for Raya. Sounds like a concussion. We've "been there done that" ... actually twice in the past year with 1 young daughter.

Hope you're back home soon.
