Jacobs Birthday Party

Quick update

Daddy and James arrived safely yesterday evening from Chattanooga.  Today (Sunday) we had an early birthday party for Jacob with our Maryland family, Gran, and a couple of wonderful friends - Sherrie and Sophie.  We'll post some pics tomorrow (Monday).

Jacob is doing a little better with each day.  He took a few more steps today and spent a good deal of time out and about in his wheelchair.  

Please continue to pray that he will drain sufficiently through his three tubes and drink plenty of fluid.  These tubes can become clogged with mucus and require more regular irrigation (which is uncomfortable for Jacob).  Also, we will need to begin weaning him off of some of his pain meds, soon,  but for now, he still needs them on a semi-regular basis.  

His newly revised colostomy continues to perform well - no prolapse and no dilating.  

Praise The Lord.  Let the earth hear His voice.
