Doing well

Eli is doing well off the vent. He had a collapsed left lung last night, but with some effort, they were able to get it inflated. Now, his right lung is collapsed. They are working to get it re-inflated. He is on a bi-pap to help him breathe and get the lung inflated. So far, he is resting well and all his blood gases are coming back with good readings. Please pray that lung reinflates so they will not have to reintubate him. We surely do not want that to happen.

He was on his stomach last night and raised his head up and looked around. He is our strong fighter!!

On another note, Tammy went to the ER last night because she had been having some heart "flutters". She is doing okay, but they did put a monitor on her and she will follow up with a cardiologist next week. They think it is just stress and lack of sleep. Imagine that!! Don't know how anyone could be stressed around here ;-).

We praise God our provider who is continually watching over us and keeping us in His hands. He truly has blessed us with more than we could ever imagine. Please continue to pray that Eli does well and that his lung re-inflates and he does not have to be re-intubated.

Thanks and God Bless,
The Frazier's
