On another note, please be praying for JW as we have learned he will be having a feeding tube put in sometime this week or next week. Not sure on the date, but I will update again after I know more. The doctors have elected to put the tube in so that JW can more easily be fed and have the tube removed from his nose. Also, this will probably allow him to come home sooner than if the tube was not put in. JW still cannot be fed by mouth as his swallowing and sucking reflexes are still weak. Please be praying that these reflexes will become stronger every day. Also pray that everything will go smoothly during the procedure and that God will guide and direct the nurses and doctors caring for JW. Pray that the Lord will surround JW with His angels and empower them to protect and comfort JW during this time.
Allie also mentioned today that there were attempts being made to move JW to an actual crib! This is great news and means that he is improving. I know there are many of you who have been devoted prayer warriors for our little guy and we thank you and pray that God blesses you in return. Thank you for your faithfulness...you have given us much hope!
I will update again soon with more info. on the procedure date and how everything goes. Oh, and I will try to get ahold of those pictures...you aren't going to believe how different JW looks!
