Please continue to pray!



We had a tough day at the hospital with Boston today, please continue to pray for him. He keeps dropping his stats, today the alarms seemed to be ringing more than they were silent. They even had to put an oxygen mask on him.
They are trying to figure out the cause for all of the DSAT's - the poor little guy went though a chest x-ray and they drew blood from his arm. Later more tests were ordered which led to TWO heel sticks. They were debating a blood transfusion when his blood levels looked low but they have ruled that out as the cause. We are waiting to hear back to see if he is fighting an infection or not. He was exhausted.
I know they say time in the NICU is like a roller coaster and that there will be ups and downs and right now is one of those down times. We appreciate the continued prayer and love and support from all of our family and friends - it is what gets us through the tough days!
