First let me say that I am doing better today, and really just wanted to be honest about how I was feeling last night. Usually just getting my thoughts out and a good nights rest is all I need to be refreshed. Sorry for any worry or concern I may have caused! I just need to be able to remind myself that even the hardest of days are days that the Lord has made, and I can still choose to rejoice and be glad in even those hard days.
Kayden has slowly been passing gas, but is still going in and out of extreme pain. The surgeons sent us down to do an x-ray this morning with the possibility of doing yet another ct scan. The x-ray showed that Kayden has gas all through his intestines, so he just has a slow bowel (there was a special word for it, I can't recall it off hand). This is good because the surgeons were thinking this morning we may be facing yet another surgery. Please just continue to pray that Kayden's bowels would wake up and push that gas (and more!) through. His belly is slightly extended, so there is talk of yet another ng tube (the nose tube), so please pray that the gas will get worked through and ng would not be needed! Still not sure when we will start chemo, our 2 sets of doctors are dueling it out!
Thank you for your love and support and your continued prayers.

Hang in there! I am praying for your little man right now! I love your attitude about today and your honesty as I read your entries. May the Lord be working in mighty ways in your sweet son tonight so he can go home!
ReplyDeleteHi Korene, there is no reason for you to apologize. It is good for you to get all your feelings out (the good, the bad and the ugly) It really helps people to relate better . . . to get a "glimpse" of what you and your family is going thru. Thank you for sharing so that we can draw nearer to you in our thoughts and prayers and understanding We thank you for your honesty. We pray also that this would soon be finished that it will be a distant memory for you all. Dear Heavenly Father we pray for the Edwards right now we pray that you would provide healing to little Kayden, that you would comfort him, you would give him peace you would take away any pain that he might have. Lord that you would WAKE up those bowels of his. Give the Doctors Your wisdom to take care of Kayden. Be with Korene and Aaron, give them Strength help them to continue to draw from your word. Your words of encouragement, promises and Your words of hope. Thank you Jesus for all that you give us and for carrying us when we feel like we can't take another step. Amen
