Critical Condition; Improvement Hopeful

We serve a mighty God. We know that the Lord is the one who controls every heartbeat.
Caleb is in critical condition; however he is not worse then he was yesterday. That is good. He may even be a little better. He is highly medicated, being given about nine or so different medicines. (Apologies to our doctor friends that I don't know what they all are called.) Because of the medication, his heart beat, blood pressure, etc is about where they want it. The goal here is to balance his circulation. Again, he seems to be a little better then yesterday.
So what's next? He is constantly being observed and "tweaked". Minor adjustments are continually made with his nitrogen, oxygen, and medications. We have seen some of our new friends' babies recover from similar situations in about a week. Caleb is not recovering from the surgery as quickly as the doctors had hoped, but we are trusting in the Lord that he will recover. As long as he shows signs of improving, however minute, they will keep doing what they're doing. If he plateau's, they may go to the cath lab and have a closer look to see exactly what the problem is and go from there. Worst case is that he'd have to have another surgery.
Often the doctors and nurses say that it is up to him (Caleb) as to how well and how fast he recovers. With our knowledge of God's sovereignty and power over life, with our understanding of our Savior's love for children, we know that the Father is able to change Caleb's circulation. That's our prayer request: that little Caleb's circulation would be balanced first with the aid of medical treatment, and then without. Please join us in prayer for this.
Janet is doing well. Every day her pain usually decreases. Daddy is doing well, too. We've been here at the hospital about eleven days. It's wonderful to have a situation in your life that draws you close to the Lord. We don't pray for trials to happen and it's certainly not fun; it is true, however, that it improves your walk with Jesus.
