Shopping
I went shopping today. I got lots of new shirts and two outfits for my surgery. I need button on shirts because I will have a bandage on my head and it will be hard to get my shirts off with that on. My doctor's name is Dr. Brent. My mom is typing this for me. I got a purple shirt which is my favorite color and I got a red shirt which is my friend Mari's favorite color. I also got cute jeans and cute leggings. I got new shoes. They are tan with buckles. Chloe got the same shoes except for dark brown. The reason I got the shoes is because it's more like summer in Cali and to look cute. We leave in nine days, which is on the 26th. My surgery is on the 28th. I want the surgery because I want to hear. I don't want the surgery because I want my little ear to stay. Half my body wants a new ear and the other half wants the old ear to stay. I also want a new ear so that I can wear ponytails. I can't wear ponytails now because in kindergarten I wore a ponytail and we all sat down on a carpet for word time and they all stared at me. I wonder what the plane ride to California is going to be like. Last time there were lots and lots of air pockets. Me and Chloe would switch having turns by the window. I cried when I was by the window because I was scared, and chloe wasn't even afraid. I'll write more another day. Goodbye. Peace out. Gabi

Gabi, a friend in Litchfield, Teri Anderson, sent me a prayer request for you. She said your grandfather married her and Jeff. You are such an amazing brave person; and I will be praying for you during your surgery and that all will go well with your surgery. I will ask my Prayer Group to pray for you also. I'm sure your little ear will understand that this is best for you! Be strong and I hope you get to wear that ponytail soon!

Hi Gabi,
ReplyDeleteThough you do not know me, I work with your dad at the High School! I just wanted to wish you the best with your new ear!! I. too, have a "reconstructed" ear lobe...not as much as you, but I was about your age when they added to the lobe of my ear. I was scared, but as an adult, I am very thankful for great plastic surgeons who were able to make my ears look more alike!! I'm sending you thoughts and prayers!! You are obviously a very brave young lady!! All me best!! Beth Gadola
