Cath Completed

We are waiting to see Caleb. His cath is over. Now the challenge is for him to remain still for six hours. Anyone that knows Caleb knows that this is easier said then done. The scripture that comes to mind is "Be still and know that I am God".

Prayer Request

It was rough putting Caleb "to sleep" for the cath. He's always ha a high tolerance for medicine, so he needs a strong dose. He went down with a fight, screaming all the way. Please pray for him that when he wakes up he will be kind and appreciative to the doctors and nurses. A lot to ask, we know. We want Caleb to have the peace of the Lord.

Caleb in Pre-op

Caleb is with Mommy in pre-op. He'll be undergoing his cath as soon as he goes to sleep. Genesis is having fun with Daddy drinking Starbucks and exploring all the cool play areas at the hospital.

Almost Done With Day One

Testing is done. We saw the cardiac units. Now we are waiting to meet some doctors and then we will go play in the snow!

Progress Report

Caleb is now undergoing an echo, which is a sonogram of the heart.. He's had a chest x-ray, vitals, and blood work. He's doing great, having fun - except when they drew blood!

At the Hospital

We are at the hospital. Caleb has been registered and we are waiting for him to have a chest x-ray. One of many tests today.

Arrival

Thankfully, we arrived safely late last night at our friends house about twenty miles west of Boston. We spent the day today hanging out and relaxing.

Tomorrow we will be at the hospital at 7:00am when Caleb will begin several tests in preparation for his cath on the 24th. We are looking forward to meeting Caleb's surgeon and learning about the hospital.

Thanks for your prayers.
