I guarantee that the activity on my posts will pick up once we get to Houston on Sunday evening. You guys have been awesome already with your encouragement and blessings. For now, I have to share what may seem like a strange request.Max does not like band-aids.
Big ones, little ones, colored ones, plain ones...he wants them off. I was reminded of this yesterday when he fell and scraped his knee. I then thought about all the IVs, wires, post-surgery dressings, etc. that our little man will be exposed to over the next few weeks. The rational mind says, "We may have a problem." God in me says, "Be still and pray." (I've been hearing that a lot lately!)
So, dear friends, if you've never mentioned band-aids in a prayer before...this would be a great time to start! Max doesn't have to like 'em, just tolerate 'em! GOD IS SO GOOD!

Dear Fortenberry's
I will definately remember Max and his aversion to band aids. That is really a big deal to him. Thank you for allowing us to be updated during his surgery. We will be praying for him and you and for his brothers and sister!

Dear Fortenberry's,
We are thinking about you and calling on the name of the Lord for Max and for all the medical team. Even bandaids!!!
Carl and Courtney...we are praying for you in a special way as well. We pray that God will show himself in ways that you would not have believed even if he had told you!!! We are going to "speak the name of the Lord" to this situation and thank HIM that surgery can correct his precious little lamb's heart! You are LOVED!

Erin Lynn's blog brought me to Max's page. Our son, Jack, was in the same class at church with Max until we moved to tn this year. We kept their class on many occasions at church and were blessed by Max's overall love for life! Please know that our family will be praying for him...the surgery...oh and the bandaids (Jack's not a fan either)!
Lifting you up!!!
