The rest of the day...

Well, since last I wrote you, so many things have changed. Kayden threw up a lot and now has another ng tube in his nose. They say it will be there a day or two, depending on how much is sucked out of his tummy. And apparently poop is not the most exciting sign to look for. WE NEED GAS!!! I guess the colon can push poop out without the bowels being fully awake, but gas is a sign that what is coming in is leaving quickly, and therefore a better indicator of awakened bowels. Sorry if that was too graphic, just knew there are some out there who would like to know.
Aaron needs to get home and back to work this weekend, and I really don't want Kayd and I to be left here without him, so PLEASE pray that we can be out of here by the end of the weekend! God is a mighty God who is in control of this, He is Healer God, and He can and He will get Kayden through this. I do believe that, and believe that He can do it by this weekend. For all of our sakes, I hope and pray that this will happen by this weekend. Little man has been through more than enough, and so has my little miss. We big folks struggle, but at least we can pretend to understand what is happening. Kayden has no clue why mommy won't even give him a drink of water! (Grandpa did get to buy him lolipops today (dr. approved) to sooth his throat, which totally changed Kayden's disposition for a while (he was his normal self) and even made him feel comfortable enough to move off of my lap and sit next to Grandpa :) )
So, we all know the biggy prayer request, that one that we never thought we'd pray for, and the blood pressure, but I would like my main focus of prayer requests tonight to be on praising our Almighty who shelters us under the feathers of his wings (Psalms 91), who is not suprised that I am typing this on a tiny computer (which works much better in the light) from a hospital "bed" tonight and who knows exactly what is wrong with Kayden right now, what he needs and when we will get to go home! Though we face pain and suffering today, I am glad I serve a God who sees, who knows, and who will walk with me (or carry me) through this time!

  2. Oh boy did your day get really crazy after I left! So sorry about the nose tube, so happy about the lolipops and the closeness to Grandpa. I LOVE Psalm 91...but you already knew that. As always, all our love and many prayers as you walk through the fire...
