Pearson had another AWESOME day! He has been resting so good and seems so much more peaceful and comfortable. It feels like a ton of bricks have been lifted off of our shoulders now being able to leave our baby and know that he is going to be resting and sleeping peacefully while we are away. He has started to wean off of some of his medications, so the central line that they have going in his neck, which is a tube that they put in to insert his medicines through, (because he has so many medications that he is on, he actually has 3 different lines run in his body in different places where they feed his medicine into) will hopefully be taken out by Tuesday, which means one more tube GONE!!! He will still have the main line, which goes through his belly button, and one in his hand like an I.V.
I'm sure you are wondering where I got the title, "Our Little Prayer Warrior." Every night before Matt and I leave Pearson for the night, we always say a prayer with him. Tonight when we were saying our prayer, Pearson had his precious little hands up to his face like he was praying with us. It was the sweetest thing ever! I think he knows the man who is getting him through all of this, so he is thanking Him along with his mommy and daddy....what do you think?
I am so thankful that he is doing so well, and that those tubes are disappearing one by one. I'm sure that with every tube they remove, you and Matt breathe a little easier. You two just keep talking and planning all of the wonderful things you're going to do with your little man when he gets home... with all of the people who have been and continue to pray for him, he'll be home in no time. Thank you for keeping us updated on his progress. I look forward to reading your blog every morning (in this case, night... lol) Hunter, Jenna and I are wearing our "Prayers and Praises" wristbands every day, and we can't wait to meet him in person!! Love you!!

So wonderful to hear of the great progress lately! I know you and Matt are so proud of how strong Pearson is. Just think of the inspiring stories you'll tell him of his first few weeks and months. I love your plans for him in the near future and the prayers you do with him each night. You and Matt are special.
ReplyDeleteBrandi, I'm reading your post this evening and balling tears of joy, rejoicing for you, matt, and the little man. I knew he would have to be a "warrior"!!! Keep up the good work Little P, Matt and Brandi, and most of all THANK YOU LORD!!!
ReplyDeleteWhat a precious picture! I think you are right Brandi, Pearson does know the man who is giving him strength to fight. So happy that Pearson is having awesome days. We rejoice with you and continue to pray:)
