Pray for poop

James is having a harder time today moving things through and his belly is distended. We have given him something called Miralax (I think that is how it is spelled) and are hoping for some action today. It would, more than likely, help his comfort level quite a bit. It is hard to eat, or to have food but into your belly via a g-tube, when you are already full.

I am trying real hard to come down with a cold or something. It will be my second one. Must be the hospital.

At about 10:30 (local time) Vern was leaving Janesville, Wisconsin. We are hoping he will arrive around 4 or 4:30.

The doctors are hoping to get us out of here by 9:00 tomorrow morning, so we still have a few things to do. I need to go pick up James meds and supplies from the pharmacy and sit down with his nurse to make a chart of when he is supposed to get everything. We have most of our stuff packed in our bags and a box and we hope to get some of that into the car this afternoon.

Please pray:

1. for continued safety and good driving for Vern.
2. for good health for all of us (no colds, etc).
3. for James to poop and get comfortable and be able to eat.

Love, Stephanie
