We have our little boy in the hospital room this morning for the first time. Josiah is doing great! He has do good with the feedings through the night and his blood sugars have come back good after stopping the IV fluids. The doctor wants to finish the 48 round of IV antibiotics just in case the blood cultures from Friday night grow anything. That means Josiah will have a half coffee sup cup taped to his head until about 3AM tonight. They will also have to take him to the nursery to administer the antibiotics and flush via IV pump.
Sherry’s dad stopped by with some chocolate frosted Krispy Kreme doughnuts this morning. YUM YUM!!! Grandpa got to hold Josiah for a while before we got the news that we could move him out of the nursery. Grandpa had to leave to go back to Atlanta just before we got the news that Josiah was moving to our room.
Sherry has been doing GREAT!!! Praise God. She was walking to the nursery and back unassisted within 24 after her c-section.
Please continue to pray for:
– Continued success with breast feeding (Is has been a great experience in the past 18 hours)
– A gentle humble spirit for Sherry and me
– Rapid healing for Sherry
– Rest for all of us
– Smooth adjustment for all of us as things change over the next two days from nursery to hospital room to home
– Clear results from the Josiah’s blood cultures.
Thank you for your continued prayer and support for our family.
