This is the amazing journey of our two miracles. John Craig was born on November 30, 2005 at 24 weeks and 5 days gestation. He weighed 1 pound 8 ounces and was 12 inches long. John is a true miracle and an inspiration to all that meet him! Hope Amanda, our perfect little girl, is currently recovering from two brain surgeries to remove a 6cm mass from the center of her brain. Hope represents everything good in this world and she too is an inspiration to all.
For I know the plans I have for you, declares the Lord, plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you a hope and a future.
Jeremiah 29.11

6 Weeks Post-op

She’s come a long way in the past six weeks🙏🏼

She’s feeling well, back to school full time and doing pilates videos every night. Her determination is inspiring. 

However the side effects of her medicine came on quickly and they’re quit uncomfortable for her. She has a severe rash (acne) all over her face, neck, check and back. It’s painful and itchy. Thankfully our dermatologist squeezed us in this Friday. Praying he can bring her some relief. Our Oncologist said if we can’t get it under control we may have to half her dose or take a few days off of it and see if that helps. It’s going to be a long two years but we know the alternative it’s 100% worse.

The Birtch’s were made to do hard things. We’ve got this!
