Update on Andrew

The doctor met with me this evening and went over the results of Andrew's second brain ultrasound. The bleeding has gotten worse. It has gone from a grade 2 to a grade 3 and is still on both sides of his brain. The doctor said we are in a waiting game right now. They will redo the scan in another week. Please pray that we will see a significant decrease next week.

Regarding his infection, he does seem to be responding to the antibiotics. They will do another blood work up tomorrow to confirm that the antibiotics are working. But, he seems to be feeling better and was breathing more on his own today. So, that is some good news.

We will surely be praying even harder. We prayed for them last night at prayer meeting and I will mention it to those at work tomorrow. Take care and rest in the Lord. Love to you all, Brenda

More family from Maine are praying for you and your little ones. They are all so cute and little individuals already! It amazes me how God makes them all together but completely different. That probably sounds stupid but I don't know how else to put it. Love to you and Brent, Your cousins Becky and Dennis McKeen

Brent and Wendy,
You both, and little Andrew are in our prayers. I was thinking the other day what a testimony you two must be to the Drs. and Nurses.

We love you, Beth and family

If Ike comes our way, maybe we could come your way. Keep thinking about little Andrew and my heart just squeezes for him and you guys. We pray and think of you often. I just love the pictures of them. I look at them several times a day. Love, Brenda
