So to make a long story short we still don't know when Mason's surgery is...as you know his surgeon is on maternity leave and the dr. who was supposed to take her place is going on vacation tomorrow which means 4 caseloads of surgery is now having to be fit into 2. So we aren't really sure where this leaves us but I know it is all in God's hands. So we will keep waiting. Meanwhile, Mason is doing well. He is handling the nasal canula and they increased his feeds again to 5.1. This morning he weighed around 4 lbs. 5 oz. They are slightly concerned about some edema that has hung around in his groin and leg area but haven't suggested any medicine as far as that goes. We are so thankful to have some "restful days" where we can just coast along and grow (and the fact that Mason is 11 weeks old tonight). And we also continue to be SO thankful for your prayers. It means more than you can imagine and we feel an overwhelming since of peace. We truly believe as Pastor Don said on Sunday that God has a purpose. He never wastes pain. And we know that God has a big plan for Mason's life. We just have to our eyes on Him and trust in His provision.
2 Thessalonians 3:16 Now may the Lord of peace himself give you peace at all times and in every way. The Lord be with all of you.
Sorry to hear that you are just waiting, not knowing at the moment. At least Mason is getting a few days to relax, rest, and grow. Happy 11 weeks Mason. You are one strong little guy!!
ReplyDeleteI am praying Psalm 34 for you and Mason especially verses 4-7 and 17-20.
