6 Weeks Old

What a day! We are on our way home from the hospital for the night. Levi has done so good today, out of nowhere. Dr. A. came to talk to us this morning and said the good news was that Levi has made some actual progress but the bad news was that it isn't enough progress to get past the ECMO hump of our journey. He fully expected to come in and have "the talk" with us today but he wants to give him a day or two to continue with the progress and try to come off ECMO. So, he had air on his X-ray today, the most he has ever had. His blood gases have been good all day with his Co2 being low enough for them to wean his gas sweep a good bit. His sats were good all day! We had pretty good breath sounds today! PRAISE THE LORD, OH MY SOUL! We have been praying and praying! We have got to push away any doubts that we have, any negative thought. We have got to trust in the LORD and believe that HE is working on Levi and will heal Levi! I will not give up. I will continue to pray and continue to ask everyone else to pray. This has got to happen in the next day or two and we are ridding ourselves of all doubts and believing that this amazing thing is about to happen.

"Now then, stand still and see this great thing the Lord is about to do before your eyes!" 1 Samuel 12:16
