Little Mav continues to do well. His BUN is in the 80's today. His weight is down and they have started weaning him from the ventilator. He's had a few issues pop up - he has diarrhea now caused by an overgrowth of bacteria in his intestines. He's been on so many antibiotics, it's not surprising. His little bottom is very raw as well and has a spot that is draining serous fluid. It looks so painful. The wound care nurse has been in and they're putting a concoction of different things on it. Pray that this will heal and he'll get over the diarrhea quickly.
Greg, the kids and I are enjoying our time together. The little ones get a little antsy being at the hospital too much, so we're trying to split up our time. It's just hard for me to leave Mav, though, especially when he's awake. We're very thankful for the house we're staying at. It's been nice to be together and closer to Mav - it's a little more close to normal. I'm just ready to have him home. Thanks for all your posts - I enjoy hearing from you all - love, jc

He really looks great. We are still praying for all of you. Please let us know if there is anything we can do at the house. We're just right around the corner. Grace be to all of you. Happy Thanksgiving!

Julianne,
You continue to be in my prayer, I know that this time in your family's life is a rollercoaster. I do understand the tremendous toll this is taking on you. Hang in there. He is a beautiful little man. He is a fighter. Call me after the holiday's if you have time to talk. Tara.
