Down Day

Jason just texted a little while ago with some news.  Colby has taken a downward turn on several fronts today.  The adjustments they made with the "regular" vent and they have switched him over to the oscillating ventilator.  They have also reintroduced the dopamine, which they were using to help keep his blood pressure up.  Also, Colby's skin has started drying out and they are trying to treat that.

There are some concerns that Colby may have an infection.  I know they had taken him off the antibiotics the other day because he had been doing so well.  I'm hoping that much of these developments can be reversed with something as simple as getting those antibiotics back into his blood stream and giving his immune system a boost of help.  But, the more sure and powerful solution will come from God's own hand.  His healing is perfect and miraculous.  We're asking for prayer:
  1. As always, please pray for God's will for Colby to prevail.
  2. Please pray for wisdom and guidance for the medical team who is treating him.  They are well-educated and well-trained, but His knowledge is so deep that He knows the number off hairs on Colby's head and He knows exactly what Colby needs right now.
  3. Please pray for comfort and peace for Colby's parents.  They love and trust in God, but please pray that His presence is constantly felt by them.
Again, thank you all for your continued prayer and support!  Let us continue to PRAY; He will hear us!!

May God bless and keep you and give you the strength to keep supporting these guys.
