Quick updates

Baby Isaac was in surgery for 13 hours yesterday, but is out and is now recovering. He was able to get his full repair, which is really great news! Thanks for all the prayers for him. Please continue to pray for a quick and complication-free recovery for this sweet baby.


Elijah is slowly getting better day by day. He still has a nasty cough and lots of congestion. Today Dan is taking him to see a pulmonologist to see if we can get some things figured out with his wheezing and gunkiness. I'll post later with details...

Yay for Isaac. I have been praying so hard for him. I cannot beleive how tough these little men are.....they really are special little people. We will keep praying that Eli is given a speedy recovery from the illness and some rest for his worried parents. Hang in there guys!

Love,

Katie and the boys

I see that you were able to make it up until the end of surgery last night...I ended up falling asleep and ran to the computer first thing this morning to check on little Isaac...what a champion!

I can't wait to hear what the pulmonologist has to say about sweet Eli. Hopefully, he/she will have lots of answers for him (and his mommy & daddy).

Will the surgery that Isaac just have been what Eli needs when he is ready?

I will be checking back later to hear about Eli's appt.

Hugs,
Samantha

Happy to hear about Isaac, and that things have gone well thus far.

I sure hope that Elijah gets better quickly - you guys are in our prayers.

Thank God about Isaac...
and I sure hope that little Eli is feeling better soon...

Magoo is very junky and coughing ..
we're giving him Prednisone for 5 days to open up those little lungs...
sure don't like what steroids do to the personalities...
but is sure stops the wheezing.

Samantha--Yep, this is the same surgery Elijah will have next.

Thanks, everyone for the prayers for Isaac. He's doing so well! Prayers are definitely paying off.
