Get Well Soon Savannah

I wanted to create this blog for my cousin Kelly and Anthony's little girl Savannah!

Mom: Kelly (French) Stricklin
Dad: Anthony Stricklin

My cousin Kelly's (on my mom's side) little girl Savannah is currently at Texas Children's Hospital undergoing some tests for a malignant tumor she has on her head.

She is only 4 years old and she needs all of the love and support she can get.

Please keep her in her in your thoughts and prayers.

08.10.07 FRIDAY

Savannah will have surgery at 9am this morning to try to remove as much of the tumor as possible. I will post an update as soon as I know she is out of surgery.

2:30pm
Your mom just sent me a text message saying that you just got out of surgery. They are waiting to hear back from the doctor.

2:43pm
Your Aunt B, my mom, just called and said that your Gramps called and said that everything went great during your surgery. They got most of the mass out and will have to do another MRI tomorrow to check on their progress.

After Surgery
You look very good Savannah. You also look like you feel better.
Tomorrow you will have another MRI to see how much is left.
We hope everything goes well and you keep getting better.

Hang in there little one!

More to come...


Many people are praying for you!!!

I will update this blog post as needed.

Hi Savannah,

We just wanted to let you know that we are thinking of you and hope you feel better real soon. When you feel better, tell Casey to bring you to her Aunt Patricia's house to play with her girls. You will have fun with Shayla, she was 4 like you just a few months ago. God be with you, you are a beautiful little girl.

Our thoughts and prayers are with you,

Savannah,

May God wrap his protection around you and shower you with his love. Know that he is there every step of the way and at no moment are you alone.

You are a beautiful little girl! Tell Casey that when you get ready Gavin would love to play with you.

In Jesus' name I pray Amen!

Keep Praise God...for Everything!

Again, I will keep Savannah in my prayers - I could not imagine what your family is going through. Prayer is very powerful and Texas Children's is the best when it comes to care. Take care.

Hi baby,

Mommy just wanted to tell you that I love you very much. I'm so happy that you are feeling better. I wanted to tell you that I'm so proud of you and how far you have come. We still have a long way to go but daddy and I, and everyone else are going to be standing by you the whole way.....I made a promise to you when you where born that I would never leave you know matter what and that is never going to change. I know what is going on and it scares you and you don't understand but its going to get better and I promise. Mommy is going to make it better. If it takes everything out of me so be it.
Sometimes I sit and look at you and I wish it was me and not you. I tell God everyday please let me take her place. This wasn't supposed to happen to you and it just makes me very angry that you have to go through this you are just a baby and you are my baby since the day you were born. Mommy prays for you everynight and everyday. I love you more than life its self. LOVE YOU


LOVE ALWAYS MOMMY

Good Morning Savannah, I just finished my morning prayers and you are on the top - just like a star!!

Know that you are in our hearts, minds and prayers - all day.

We just saw your pictures taken at the hospital, you are still that beautiful smile - they didn't get that in the surgery.

Keep that head out of trouble girl, and remember if you need me I am only a small yell away!
