Peek-A-Boo Two!

Good Evening Prayer Warriors!

I just called and checked up on our trooper and he is having a good night.  Here are some of the highlights for you:

-Ms. Debbie (his nurse for this evening) had not gotten a chance to check his weight yet tonight so we will see how that is in the morning.

-He is at 100% oxygen right now.  They have made some other adjustments to the machine but we need PRAYERS that his oxygen is able to come down.  It isn't good for him to have it that high for too long.

-He received some blood and platelets today which has helped his blood pressure and they were able to take him off the dopamine!  PRAISE!!!

-He started feeding today!!!  PRAISE!!!  He is getting 1 CC of Pedilyte every six hours.  He is due to have some at midnight and at 6am.  If he does ok with those, they will feed him the formula for lunch! :) 

-Colby is still on his antibiotics and they should be repeating a culture in a few days to see if it comes back positive or negative to see if the infection is still there or not. PRAYERS that the next culture will come back negative and Colby will be free from any infections!

-He is currently on 75% humidity in his bed and his skin seems to be reacting well to that and the lotion-like stuff they put on him is working very well on his cracked skin.  PRAISE!!!

-When I went to the hospital today, Colby opened his eyes just a little bit and played Peek-A-Boo with me!  It was a very special moment and of course I cried!  PRAISE, PRAISE, PRAISE!!!

I know that it seems like we are repeating a lot of the same things day after day, blog after blog---we pray that our Prayer Warriors do not tire of reading it.  I try to make it fun while still giving out the information we learned that day!  Thank you for all the love and support---please keep it coming.  We grow stronger because of your prayers!

God Bless,
