Checking out - update and prayer request

Jacob has just now been released from the hospital (Praise the Lord). He and Mommy CA will be heading back to the Children's House here shortly (they've just picked up Jacob's prescriptions).

The next scheduled follow-up will be with Urology this coming Monday (Dr. Gearhart).

Jacob does, however, have a low grade fever and appears to be a little bit flushed. We are, of course, concerned about the possibility of infections and/or illness. Please pray that the Lord will keep he and Mommy healthy and that Jacob will not develop any infections.

Please continue to pray that the Lord will grant us wisdom in making the various arrangments (travel, school, work, etc). At this point, Daddy BA and James may travel to Baltimore this weekend so James can visit with his brother and Mommy (as well as cousins Ronnie and Joshua) and also go to his dr appointment on Tuesday. These plans are still tentative at this point, although Daddy does hope to go up one way or the other.

One interesting thing that we forgot to mention yesterday - Dr. Sponseller, Jacob's orthopedic surgeon, stopped by to check him out. In the process, he actually got Jacob to give him a "high-five." This was pretty big deal for Jacob since he (for obvious reasons) tends to shy away from almost anyone wearing a lab coat or scrubbs.

He leads us by His own Hand.
