Update, prayer and praise

The last couple of days have definitely been a whirlwind for us. After being in the hospital throughout the weekend, with dehydration, a urinary infection and stomach bug, Jacob was released from the hospital yesterday. However, in the meantime, Daddy came down with the same bug and was sick most of yesterday. He is feeling a little better today. Please pray that Mommy and James will avoid this bug.

This morning, Jacob and Mommy went to see Dr. G for a follow-up and have been advised that he may need to be re-admitted to the hospital as he is still showing signs of dehydration. We have seen cases in the past, with Jacob, where the IV fluids are removed too soon and he ends up going back down. Please pray that is not the case today.

We do have a praise to share - one of the nurses he had from back in 2008 came in while he was in the hospital and applied what we call some "tough love". As a result, Jacob has now begun to cath on his own with minimal help from Mommy and Daddy. This is a huge step foward for Jacob.

God of Light, Shine down on us.

Mommy and Daddy
