Prayers Needed--Colby is having a bad day

Jason called and checked on our little pumpkin and we are not having a good day.  Here is an update:

-Moved up to 85% oxygen

-He had a low platelet count so they are giving him some platelets now

-His blood culture came back with a high band count so it is possible he has an infection.  They have started him back on antibiotics.

-Since an infection is possible---they have stopped his feedings so we don't run the risk of having an infection go to his tummy and intestines.  The nurses have been telling me that feedings go on and off and to get ready but I am so bummed we had to stop the feedings!  Colby seemed to be doing so well with them up until now. :(

-His tummy is a little swollen so they have put in a catheter---my poor baby!!!

-His SATs were holding steady though---BIG PRAISES for that!

-He is going to spend most of his time on his back today, which he doesn't like near as much as his tummy, so pray that he keeps his SATs strong today.

We need lots of prayers to help our little man today!  Thank you so much for taking the time to say a prayer---they are making a difference! 

God Bless,
Brie
