10-9-10

Today was my due date. I can't believe he is already a week old and I've only been able to hold him three times. The hospital called earlier and said Dr. K had decided to close his chest this morning so please take time out and send out a special prayer for him during this procedure. We are hoping to be able to see him around lunch time.

This has been an unbelievably stressful time for all of us. We appreciate all of the kind words, gifts and especially all of the prayers. We all have learned some huge lessons about how God is in control here. There is no set plan for any of this. The doctors have given us some time lines and keep reminding us that all of this depends on Jordan...his reactions to medicines...whether fluids come out of his body or not, etc. We had a peace about us on surgery day that we still have today. We are leaving it all in God's hands.
We want to spend every minute possible each day with Jordan. We appreciate those of you who have respected that when you visited and all of you who brought things and did things to help us to be able to do that. Keep all of the prayers coming for us and all of the other Heart Babies and their families. They are all greatly appreciated!!
Jordan is already ready for the game. GO DAWGS!

  5. Glad to hear surgery went well. This is one more hurdle behind you. One of the amazing thing about babies is they bounce back so quickly. Prayers coming your way.
