Wednesday, January 11th


Mommy & Will




I got some WONDERFUL news yesterday. Josh's employer got a new insurance company, as of January 1st. We were a little anxious about what his new lifetime maximum would be. (We were about to hit our $1 million cap with our old company) Will's case manager informed me that under our new plan it is UNLIMITED... NO LIFETIME MAXIMUM!!! Praise God!!

I am continually amazed by God's work in our lives. From day one, he has worked miracles for us.

The inspection of our apartment went well Monday, and his home ventilator is expected to arrive to the hospital sometime tomorrow, or Friday at the very latest. We can't wait to learn how to use it so we can get our boy home!!

I also want to say what a great job Kirk and Robert did today on their trach training! I know it is intimidating at first, but with time and practice it will get easier. Which reminds me, Josh, I am so proud of you too. He had to change out Will's trach today for the 1st time, and he was sooo nervous. He thought that he might pass out. But, you did a great job!

Oh, and I can't forget Will. He was so calm through the whole process. I think he is starting to understand that when we have to take care of his trach, although the process may be a bit uncomfortable, he will feel better when it is over with.

Thank you to everyone for your prayers and support for the Lowrie family. Little Wyatt goes into surgery 1st thing tomorrow morning (7 am our time) for his 2nd stage heart procedure. I know he will pull through like a champ! I can't wait until the day when Will & Wyatt will play together.

    Way to go, Josh!! (and Kirk and Robert!) Proud of you all. And Stephanie...You are amazing!! We are all so proud of you, too. It is hard to be the mom. We usually get the 'Dr. Mom' title and when someone gets sick it is on us to take care of it. Not very easy with Will and yet you are doing an awesome job. What a strong and yet loving mom you are! We love you and keep you all in our prayers daily.

    Thank you, Stephanie, for sharing this wonderful news with us. And for calling out attention to the miraculous ways God is making Himself known.

    Give thanks to the Lord, for he is good; his love endures forever...I will give you thanks, for you answered me; you have become my salvation."
    Psalm 118: 1, 21

    We love you all!

    We have been praying for Wyatt, too. I am so happy to know that you all were able to make a spiritual bond with his family. What a tribute to both you, the Burns, and the Lowries, that even in the midst of your own personal trials, you all continue to also care about and pray for others' life struggles.

    God is amazing! It is so evident that he has been laying the pathways to provide for Will for quite some time--- before we even knew to ask!!!
