Praise God!!!

We got Bella's test results back this afternoon and they're

NEGATIVE!

I can hardly describe how relieved and thankful we feel. My first reaction was to burst into tears, followed by jumping up and down and singing, with a bit of running and around in circles! I just feel like there's a giant weight lifted off our shoulders.
(The reality of course is that it was never really on our shoulders, or at least, it didn't have to be. In our family devotions we've been talking about releasing our problems and worries to God. Very relevant right now. It's been a daily struggle, and I'm not sure we've mastered it, but we're working on it!)
Thanks so much for praying with us over the past month as we've waited. It's been agonizing, but knowing that so many people were praying daily for Bella made all the difference!
She is in good Hands.

Rachel, Austin, Joanne and Bella

ps - here's a picture of Bella in her halloween costume... a wee bit early. But she's a purple dragon and we couldn't resist!
pps - The final test will come at 18 months, so we'll do another at 12 and then 18. Keep praying!
