......baby steps......... !!
Just wanted to give a short update to all of you, the days all run together for us ! The last three days Jared has done well and made progress (we think) on his breathing tests. They test him( turning the vent way down-having him breathe mostly on his own) about 4 times a day for about an hour to an hour and a half each time. It wears him out but also strengthens his lungs ! The next few days he needs to continue to make progress doing this as he is running out of time on the vent. We pray that every day he will be stronger and be able to do more ! Also the other big concern right now is the "infection" in his stomach. Jared is on a lot of different medication now which makes him a little sick to his stomach. It gets to feeling like one step forward and two back sometimes but we are hopeful that it will all come together for him and we see his fighting spirit coming through!! It has been about 3 weeks since we have had a conversation with him, Jared is doing a lot of "listening" now...we are anxious to hear his voice again...o for the little things in life...please keep Christina in your prayers as she juggles all that is on her plate right now and thank you all again for all the support you send our way !!
