Little Man


Hi All

Thank you all for your prayers, cards, emails, dinner... We have been inundated with support. Wanted to let you know about lil man: Wed & Thurs, thank the Lord, have been better. Today he slept alot but still got off the couch. He is still very irritable but up- watching Cars of course, going outside just to hit the baseball and then running in and crashing back on the couch. We have loved watching him run around, show us his belly and cuddling with Cianne. We have so enjoyed these times, even just sitting by him and praying for him while he is sleeping. Dadda has been his go to guy and I've loved holding his hand while he falls asleep. Our mornings and evenings are generally our quiet time together, hanging out with little man. He is eating just a little, chicken nuggets and pizza. Drinking a ton; it seems his kidneys aren't holding enough water (due to the fact tumor turning things off so to speak).

Many of you have asked how we are... it's a loaded question and the answer changes. But in general we are well. Our heart are hurting, we cry and thankfully there are times of laughter. We are seeking to trust the Lord. Prayer,scripture and good books (check out the Resources section of our blog for helpful info)are wonderful comforts to our souls. Our pastors are visiting and praying for us. Our fam and friends have been a huge support and comfort.

We have received so many meaningful emails and cards of course they make us cry and are so encouraging~ let me share one card that was sent to Micah this week~ "I wanted to let you know since you are so special Mommy & Daddy are going to name my little brother Micah, just like you.Tell your brother and sister hello and my mommy and daddy said to tell your mommy and daddy that they are in their thoughts and prayers." How special to us, what a honor!

Specific Prayer Request:
Pretty Much the same as last time just a few more things...
-The tumor is pressing and affecting Micah's kidneys so he is drinking alot but his brain is telling his kidneys to release the fluids. Because of this his electrolytes can get out of line and can cause seizures. He has been a little shaky today and last night. Please pray for no seizures, that he would eat more and drink his Gatorade.

Psalm 62:5
For God alone, O my soul, wait in silence, for my hope is from him
