We gave Josiah morphine five times today, starting at 1:00 AM. He went to sleep fussy last night and woke up the same way. I was in Isaac's room this morning when I heard Josiah crying loudly with Graham. I put Isaac's light on and gave him his children's Bible and another book and then Graham and I worked on calming Josiah down with morphine and blow by oxygen. Around half an hour later, Isaac called for me. I went in and said that Daddy and Mommy were helping Josiah. He said, "Help too." and climbed out of bed. I said he needed to go to the potty and then I said he could help by praying so he put his hands together and prayed after me for Josiah while sitting on the potty. Graham told me that later in the morning Isaac noticed a cut on Graham's hands so he said, "Dear God, Daddy better. Amen."
We miss our nurse on Saturdays but Graham's parents blessed us tremendously with their love and help today.
Between crying spells, Josiah enjoyed some time on his mat and in his swing and in the stroller. At one point he particularly enjoyed me kissing his tummy. We're thankful for the great moments.
Thank you for your prayers and support!
Blessings,
Elizabeth
