We’re Still Here….

Seth's doctor came by this morning and we're going to be in for

another day. He's waiting on a bacterial culture taken from his ear

(during surgery) to grow and then be tested against several types of

antibiotics to hopefully find one that can be taken orally (rather

than through IV), so we can go home and knock these ear infections out

once and for all. Seffy boy pulled out the IV on his left foot this

morning, so the "Vascular Access Team" (IV specialists….) just

came and left and finally found a vein in his right foot after

pricking both hands and blowing veins in each. He was hysterical

during this process, mostly because it took 3 adults to hold him

down. He is a tough little fella and strong as an ox- he proved that

just a few minutes ago! Daddy and I were borderline hysterical

ourselves…….Here's what I need you to pray for:

-That an antibiotic is found to kill the culture tomorrow morning so

that we can….

-Be released from the hospital on Monday.

-That Seth won't pull out this IV and that it will last through the

duration of our hospital stay.

-That Seth's ear infections will be cleared after this entire process

and that his hearing remain good.

Jehovah Rapha is the Great Healer- and I know He cares about veins and

ears just as much as anything else.
