Friends,
It has been a very long few weeks. We have waited patiently, sometimes with great anticipation for the day that R would be released from the hospital into our care. Several times over the past few weeks, we were prepared to take him home, only to show up and have our hopes dashed because something was wrong or not ready.
As of today, R is doing very well. He has good strength, he is tolerating his feeds very well and all of his lab results look great. The doctors confirmed today that we can take him home tomorrow!
As our family has prepared for R to come home, we realize that our work is only beginning. He is so worth it. So many of you have lifted him and our family up in prayer over the past several months. We cannot thank you enough for that! It has been a long road and we thank you for walking it with us.
A few requests for the next 24 hours and beyond...
- That he continues to do well with his recovery.
- That R would not pull out his nj tube. When he is out of restraints, he can pull it out in a matter of seconds. We will need to watch him closely.
- That the transition for all of us from hospital to home would go as smoothly as possible.
His Grace is sufficient for us. Thank you for your prayers.

Thanks for the update. Have been watching and waiting to hear. You all will be in my thoughts and prayers.
Lord, have Your way. Be Your faithful self in all the situations that will arise. Would You prepare the way ahead of them, live out Your life through them and be the living proof in them that You are God--their protector, their provider, their strength, their health, their wisdom, their compassion and love.
Thank You for all You have done and all You are going to do.
May it be so...for Your glory!
Love you guys!
