The Red Thread

Once our eyes have been opened we can't pretend that
we don't know what to do; for God who weighs our hearts and keeps our souls
knows that we know and holds us responsible to act. Proverbs
24:12

Things Are Going To Get Better

So we had the check up and now have to wait two more weeks to see if the hole is closed.  Well Owen decided on Super Bowl Sunday he was done and pulled the tube out, again.  We had just returned from church and Ansely and Iris were watching Owen as mom and dad were changing clothes.  Suddenly Ansley starts screaming and running upstairs, "the tube is out, Owen is pulling the tube out!"  Ansley is like her dad and does not do well in medical situations.  We calmed her down and Grandma Joy came over to watch Ansley, Elliot, and Iris.  We went to the ER and spent 4 hours.

Since the tube was out we decided to get some photos of Owen.....




It is starting to really depress us when we get to the ER and they remember us by name.  We have not started getting the medical bills yet and we know it is going to be scary!

The last few nights Iris has been coughing and we all new it was coming.  Last night Owen started coughing and officially has a cold.  This afternoon Melissa called to tell me he has a 102 fever.  Within five minutes Iris' school called Melissa and said she has a 102 fever and we need to come pick her up immediately.  It is going to be a long night!

We sure hope things are going to get better soon.  Please pray for health and a good-as-new esophagus for Owen.

We also want to continue to thank our friends who have been bringing meals.  It has been such a huge help and it truly is one less thing to worry about.
