Friday (Week 2)



This cutie sat himself all the way up in bed early this morning to play Mario Brothers. See, he's even holding his head up to play. This is the first he's done this! He was also doing some chatting along with his favorite shows and talking more to us. He did not, however get good sleep last night, opening his eyes at every little disruption. In many ways he is trucking along toward recovery.
We would like to ask for prayers against infection. His white blood count was up this morning and it's clear to us that Andrew is just not feeling well as the morning has gone on. While there are many reasons (lack of sleep, body adjusting to new blood flow, adjusting to weaning certain medications) he might not be feeling well, we are feeling particularly concerned about the WBC elevation. The doctors and nurses are keeping a close eye on him with the intention of addressing any possible infection at the first sign. We are thankful that he is in capable hands here on the CVICU and even more so with our God who has sustained Andrew through so much. Thank you for your continued prayers!
