Nicole and I visited Catherine yesterday. The poor thing had a very busy day. She had an echocardiogram (heart), a vision test, and an renal ultrasound (kidneys). I think she was worn out when mom and dad came to visit but she still opened her eyes for us.
The doctor called this morning and said all of the tests came back normal. They are planning on removing the suction from the tube in her stomach as the liquids are clearing up. The tube will stay in but will operate on gravity rather than constant suction. Her intestines are waking up again and of her plumbing appears to be working fine so hopefully they will begin feeding in a few days.
I say it over and over on this blog and to you all in person when we talk – THANK YOU for your prayers and support. Catherine is in one of the very best hospitals in the country if not the world. And she has the very best prayer support in the world as well. We are overwhelmed by the love and prayers poured out for her and our family. Thank you for the prayers, thank you for sharing your own personal stories of love and life concerning your own families, thank you for your extreme generosity. Thank you!
