Just need to post.

I really am overwhelmed with emotion right now. I wonder what happened to my sweet and full of life little princess. I told Jenell I wondered where are little girl was and I couldn't contain my tears. We embraced and after I was done crying she told me she had looked at some photos of Avarie at the garage sale and was wondering the same thing. Then she showed me some pictures of Avarie I hadn't seen for some time and I felt both joy and sorrow. I was reminded of how special a spirit she has and was sad to comprehend a life without her. I know people say shes going to be OK and I am as positive as I logically can be and I leave the rest in our Father in Heavens hands. I also was reminded tonight by a sweet angel that there many people who have deep and true invested feelings in Avarie and our well being. That being able to add positivity to all of our lives helps sooth the weary soul. I have wonderful parents on both sides and there support has been nothing short of complete support and sacrifice. I also have wonderful brothers and sisters on both sides of the family who love me in spite of my imperfections. I also have a ward I love and am so grateful to for all they do and all the prayers and thoughts. I cant forget a little family who have taken on so many things above and beyond anything necessary. I would like to call them friends and am sure they are showering that gift that only comes from the spirit of Christ (No arguing). I know the only way to have the kind of success I want out of this will be to use support of others and the support of my wife. The most important support is that of the spirit that only comes through faith in the lord Jesus Christ and his Atonement which allows intercession to the Father. I love every one who is thinking of us and who has taken any role at all in action in prayer or in thought. I hope Avarie is well enough to be home soon. I love my family so much. My wife and children and am trying as best I can to keep things fairly normal at home. I have had help from family, friends and great a great supervisor at work and thanks be to them all. I am learning all the little nuances of Avaries hospital care so Jenell can go home and bring some normalcy for the other three little ones. I thank you for reading and ask That if you do only one thing it would be to keep Avarie in your prayers.

Thank You

Craig Giles

I have posted about 5 times to this but deleted every time because I could not find the right words I wanted to say. I hope you know how much our family loves you and how we are always here for you. Although this is the hardest thing any of us has ever had to face we are lucky to understand that we are not going through this alone and have no reason to fear. Avarie has never taken the easy road so we should not be surprised that that is still the case:) I have faith that she can still be made whole again and the sweet girl with the sparkling blue eyes will again show and we will look back on this time and think of the lessons of faith we all learned.
Take care and know of our support and love always.

We are all so saddened to hear of your little Avarie's problems but know that our thoughts and prayers are with your family at this time. That seems to be all that we can do.
