Caden went to the doctor today with extreme congestion and coughing. They diagnosed him with sinusitous. To my surprise Sherry had spent several nights getting up to suction and comfort Caden. I took a shift last night and we both decided that it was time to get the doctor involved. They gave Caden an antibiotic and breathing treatments. They told us to look for labored breathing as a sign for concern. We have not seen labored breathing, but Caden is breathing a little fast and shallow as he was when the doctor saw him today. He generally looks like he is totally wiped out tired. He looks like I feel. The sleepless nights have started to catch up to Sherry and me.
We ask for you to pray for us now in particular. At this point I will be attending my grandmother’s funeral without Sherry and the boys. Caden is in no condition for a two and half hour car ride to Clinton. Please pray for God to heal this sinus illness that is affecting Caden in particular. Please also continue to pray for healing with the swallowing, developmental issues, and heart issues. The botox for swallowing issues on the 14th had Caden resting great without needing any suctioning through the night until this sinus cold caught up with him. Please pray that he can get back to nights of sound sleep. Please continue to thank God for the blessings that our family has experienced through these tough times. We truly are grateful for the tough times because they have drawn us closer to him. Please pray for traveling graces for me as I go to be with my family for my grandmother’s funeral services.
Thank you for your prayer and support. May God bless you and your family.
