Thank you to everyone who has been praying for David. He only had to skip three feedings, and his oxygen levels have been weaned down this morning. Yay, God!
Here's a praise report from yesterday:
David's bilirubin lights were turned off yesterday morning (Monday), which means his eye mask was removed. This is a VICTORY! John and Susan were able to personalize his isolette a bit by putting baby blankets up. They also plan to put up scriptures. If you have any words of encouragement, specific prayers, or healing scriptures to share, please e-mail them to Susan (or e-mail davidsdailyupdates@gmail.com).
John got there late last night to be with Susan and David, which was great because of all the difficult reports. He even went back to the RM house with Susan for a while and napped with her for an hour before going back home to prepare to work the next day.
Please pray for wisdom about how much time John needs to take off--this is John's first year teaching and he has a limited amount of paternity leave and wants to spend most of it at home with Susan and David when David is released.
The doctors rotate week by week, and this week David's doctor was calling him AMAZING. They have been amazed at how well he's done for so long.
At the same, time, David is really needing prayer. Susan said this morning (Tuesday, 9:30) that she can't talk to David or touch him because he can't handle any stimulus at all. You can imagine how difficult that must be on her. We need to pray for her to be strengthened and encouraged and full of faith as she navigates all the positive and negative reports.
