Tube Out

Sorry I haven't blogged in a day or two. Noah is doing well. He just got his breathing tube out. We are very happy about it. He still cannot eat or drink because his stomach just cannot handle it. He is able to have a swab for his mouth so he doesn't get too dry. We are also happy that Noah has not spiked any more high fevers and his white count is low. We are sad that it is Kim's last day with us (She is Noah's nurse). She has been such a blessing to us. Please continue to pray for Noah's progress. Thanks for all the prayers!!!

Good news. I am so happy to hear that the tube is out, and hopefully Noah will be able to eat and drink soon. I know he will continue to improve, Tell him hi for me and I will be sending him a special card.

So glad to hear! We are praying for Noah's recovery and journey to come home. Y'all are so blessed to have two wonderful girls. I couldn't imagine how difficult it is for them to be separated from you, Robin, for so long. Everytime I see them at school they always have s smile on their face. God is awesome! Love, Jennifer, Hannah, Haleigh.

It is wonderful to hear that Noah is doing good! We are still praying for his recovery and also for him to be able to eat some bacon soon. I'm sure he'll feel better then. :-) the Hendrix family
