Update

Caleb is doing ok. Tonight he threw up a couple times and we were nervous for awhile.

Yesterday the baby of a friend of ours died. Janet spent much time with the mother when we were at the hospital after Caleb's surgery. The news was quite a shock to us, a real downer. He died at home, they did CPR, called 911, etc. The mom called Janet shortly after her little boy died. This baby boy had a very similar condition to Caleb. Our hearts go out to our friends; we have been praying for them.

Tommorrow we hope to see the cardiologist. Caleb will be weighed, receive an echo cardiogram and an EKG.

Blessed be the name of the Lord.

I pray that for the Lord's hands to be continually on Caleb. I can't help but think how tough it must be seeing others around you in similar predicaments go through such an experience.
I think of a family here at church that you guys know that have found themselves in your same shoes and their boy by God's grace is still with them and has outlived the other kids who suffered from his same sickness.

God is Sovereign and in control, full of grace, kindness, and compassion. He loves you and so do I. Send my love to the family.
