Friday 2nd Update

Josh & I are on are way back to Ronald McDonald, but we wanted to let you know how Will is doing this evening.

He is continuing to make small strides. His ventilator rate is down to 38 and his oxygen is down to 70%. They have also weaned his epi (pressure med.) down a little bit as well. His urine output is also improving, which is very important because he needs to get all of those fluids out of his body!

He had an EEG and a head ultrasound this afternoon to make sure that he isn't having any seizures like he did with his 1st surgery and that his brain looks ok. We're happy to report that his brain looks good with no seizures!!

He's been awake most of the day and has been happy. He finally went to sleep this evening and he is resting peacefully. He does have a bad case of bed hair though... it is still a little sticky from the glue they put in his hair for his EEG, and it's standing straight up!!

We'll continue to keep you posted as always!!

    I am so thankful for the small strides that Will has made. Praise God for these miracles that God is providing for you and your family. Keep the faith and God will still continue to bless you and Will. God bless you greatly.

    Good Morning, Stephanie & Josh!

    Oh, it's such a joy to read the blog this morning!

    As I reflect on the last two days - the wide-ranging emotions from anguish to joy, what remains foremost in my mind is your quote.. "Will is God's Will!" It doesn't get any better than that!

    And just as important as Will - are the both of you; that God would entrust you both ...with such a special, special baby. Don't forget that because God handpicked you, He will continue to empower you with His grace - one day at a time.

    My Love to you all,
    Mom

    I am pleased that Will has made it through his surgery. Dori and I will continue to keep him in our prayers. We will also pray for your strength and faith throughout this ordeal. Talk to you when you return to Nashville.

    You can do all things through God who strengthens you......... God be with you and your family. May he hold Little Will tightly in his arms and lift him up high!! Stephenie, your words said it all,"Will, is God's Will" May you continue to feel God's love.
