Recovery

Kara is doing well as she recovers from the g-tube procedure. She is enjoying chewing on all the new toys at her disposal, her drain tube, her heart monitor cords, and other tubes that are taped to her. Kara is scheduled to come home tomorrow, Friday.

She has started to receive food at a measured pace per doctor's orders. They want to make sure she can handle food before she is allowed to come home. Her last feed she hungrily took 95 mls by mouth! Her normal feed volume is 120 mls.

Meg is doing well but tired. Kara has not been sleeping as soundly and their 'room mate' has had a hard time sleeping at night. Please pray for Meg that she would get rest and rely on the Lord for strength.

Connor and Katie are doing better, Katie more so. Connor is just now gaining his energy back.

Please continue to pray for Kara's recovery. Also pray for Meg and I that we would have patience and strength to care for all the kids this weekend.
