New granddaughter, Aisling O'Brien

On July 11 in the morning we had a call from son Kieran in Dublin that a new little granddaughter had arrived safely and we felt delighted. That evening another call came with the news that this tiny little 6lb 14oz girl would need to undergo open heart surgery. Needless to say, we were all very concerned and got busy with getting family, friends and church community to pray for a successful operation and a good recovery.
On July 24 we were pasing through Dublin and stopped in at the hospital to visit the new family and got the good news that the baby was being discharged that day and she looked absolutely beautiful! She was taking milk eagerly from the bottle and crying when it wasn't immediately forthcoming, all pointing to a healthy recovering child .
