Good News

What a big day. I am exhausted. We had two LONG appointments today in different locations.  But, I wanted to let you know you prayers are working! Nathan is now 24 pounds! From January to June of this year he stayed at 17 pounds.  Nathan's liver and kidney function is still not where they want it, but it improved! We are letting start the weaning process tonight! We need more prayers now than ever. Every time you eat, please pray for Nathan to be hungry and eat. We are cutting his calories by 50%. It's called a rapid wean. It is literally a starvation process to get him to learn how to eat. He was IV fed for 8 months, and now he has had a g-tube for 6 months.  He doesn't know what it is like to eat and be hungry.  He will be one grumpy boy.

We also got good news yesterday too! BIG PRAISE REPORT! Nathan got back from the Doctor, the fluid accumulating on his optic nerve is GONE!!!!! Thank you so much for your prayers. Our prayers were heard. We are rejoicing!!! They are suspecting his medication was the cause. They are going to stop the weekly infusions (YAY!!!!).  We do the infusions, and I hate having to stick Nathan with needles.  They will monitor his immune system levels and we will give it as needed.  Praise the Lord.  Our God is faithful, He is our healer and provider!!!!

Join me in prayer, let's all pray together for Nathan's eating! Our God can perform miracles, look what he already done. God is SO GOOD. Thank you!!!!
