Leah and I were in the grocery store the other day when we saw a familiar face in the check-out line. On the front page of the Minneapolis-St. Paul magazine was Dr. Nagib! Hurray!! I asked Leah if she knew who that was... she didn't, which is actually not a bad thing. Not seeing him is good. I told her that was Dr. Nagib, and she got really excited and said, "That's my doctor!" Of course, I had to buy the magazine. He was named one of the cities' top doctors, one of 6 who were featured in the article... and the only one on the cover. How fortunate that he's ours!
Here's a link to the full article: Minneapolis-St. Paul Top Doctors
He literally knows the inside of Leah's brain. He's done 3 surgeries on her - the first was to close her back, the next 2 were to place and replace her shunt, almost exactly a year apart.
It's yet another reminder that this is where we're supposed to be. As often as I pray for Leah, I also pray for her doctors. I feel so fortunate that the few times she's been in surgery, and any future surgeries she may have, the absolute best hands are working on her.
