Josiah Update - Late Night Tuesday February 24th

Hi Everyone

Just giving an update of Josiah since coming home. Josiah's definitely been doing mostly good since coming home, his ear especially has improved so much and we are really grateful. He's been having moments of pure bliss - we haven't seen him this happy in weeks!

Josiah's chest infection, unfortunately, hasn't appeared to have improved at all. His loogies are still terribly thick, frequent, and yellow-green ... not pleasant at all and they are really scaring him! We are going to continue with antibiotics for another week, but if there isn't any noticeable improvement in the next couple of days he may go hang out at the ICU for observation. There's a particular nasty virus going around and they want to make sure that he moves through it fine.

So if you could pray for his health and improvement we'd really appreciate it. Josiah is also getting bloodwork tomorrow morning for his dilantin levels (seizure med) to make sure they are maintaining well with his new tablets.

Thanks for blessing our family with your prayers - it's a great gift that we don't forget.
- Andrew, Marie & Josiah

Thanks for the update Andrew. I am glad that Josiah is so happy being back at home. He truly is a loved and very special little boy! I hope he doesn't have to go back to the hospital but if that helps get to the root of the problem then that will be the best thing for him I guess...

I continue to keep you all close to my heart and in my thoughts and prayers.

Love, Bev
