Tuesday, November 1st

Will had some feedings yesterday... the first few were pedialyte and then he got some breast milk. But, he threw them up. This happens a lot with patients like Will... it just takes some time for their digestive systems to get into the swing of things.

Will has been weaned off of his morphine and dopamine medications. (morphine for pain; dopamine for blood pressure) Another step to recovery!! Doctors are still working on taking him off the ventilator. One step at a time.

    Wonderful News, Stephanie! Praise God! It is so great to hear of Will's progress- every step, a step closer to home! I know you are looking forward to being able to just rock,cuddle, and nurse Will. How precious and sweet that moment will be!

    You are such a strong and capable woman! We are so blessed that God brought you into our family to be the mother of my grandbaby. Thanks for the time and effort you put into the website! Give Will my love and I will see you both soon!

    Love,
    Kirk

    This is wonderful news!! (Have you ever tasted pedialyte? I'd throw it up too!!)

    Stephanie, hope you are recovering well from the c-section.

    Can't wait to see the three of you, I know there will be a long line of family, friends and prayer partners when that day comes.

    Love and Prayers,

    Hey Stephanie,

    I am so glad to hear of more progress.. baby steps some days.. but hey, he's just that a very precious baby.

    I went to the Hope monthly Deacon's meeting this evening and shared the need for prayer for Will, for you and Josh; and the whole U of M medical team! They're taking great care of him.

    I can't imagine how many people are praying for you all. Without a doubt, prayer is the most awesome power of all.
    Love,
    Mom
