Graham took Isaac to church this morning and I spent time with Josiah. At the moment we're past the stage of needing two of us with Josiah as he seems much more stable. Recently he hasn't had episodes where one of us needs to hold him and the other gets the blow-by and the morphine.
Josiah was more awake today than he has been the last few days but he did have a long nap on Mommy in the afternoon. He moaned more today but it didn't seem like he was in a lot of pain. I forgot to mention yesterday's excitement: Graham found a third tooth coming in! This is his first top tooth and also the first tooth to come in at home. He's had his other two bottom teeth for months. So, he could be experiencing teething pain.
He didn't cough much today but I can still feel the congestion in his lungs when I hold him. It will be nice to have the physiotherapist work on him later this week. She said she'll bring a cup of some sort to help me clap on his chest.
Josiah had some smiles today that were lovely to see. It's hard not to wonder if God's going to let us keep him when he seems to be doing well. We're thankful to have him right now.
We enjoyed a delicious dinner tonight. We are blessed. Thank you for your love and prayers!
Blessings,
Elizabeth
Isaiah 41:10
Don't be afraid, for I am with you. Don't be discouraged, for I am your God. I will strengthen you and help you. I will hold you up with my victorious right hand.
Glad to hear that things have been a bit calmer for you again. I don't know how your night was last night, but I wanted to tell you that Josiah was prayed for around 4:00 am. Theo was having trouble sleeping after an exciting day, and I was in his room trying to settle him. I suggested we pray and he asked that we thank God for Josiah, too.
