Mason is doing ok. He had some bad blood gases last night so they went up on his rate and pressures and now that he is starting to wake up some again his gases have improved so they are starting to wean his rate and pressures. He is swollen but SO FAR he doesn't look as horrible as last time. He has had some urine output on his own which is good. Other than that he has pretty much been resting. He will wake up some from time to time and open up his eyes and move around a little but he has just been working on recovering from this infection and surgery. Nothing grew out from the cultures or abdominal fluid yesterday and we haven't gotten a specific organism or a sensitivity to know exactly but the big picture still is he has a urinary tract infection that also got into his blood stream. Please continue to pray for a speedy recovery for our sweet boy. We are still so thankful that he didn't have a perforation and we didn't have to go through all of that again.
1 Thessalonians 5: 16-18 Rejoice always, pray continually, give thanks in all circumstances; for this is God's will for you in Christ Jesus.
He looks like a completely different baby from the pictures a month ago. God has been good even in the challenging times. I hope one day I get to meet this little guy. Until I know that he is safe at home in your arms you guys will continually be in my prayers.
