Scripture Writing – Day 8 – Philippians 4: 4-9

 

 

 

Thankfulness, Day 8 – Today, I am thankful to have modern transportation which allows me to live in the area I choose to live in.  I’m not a horse and buggy person like my ancestors who lived here years ago.  I’m thankful for the greater distances we can drive in order to see doctors, take quiet afternoon rides, visit family and friends, etc.  I fly when necessary, but not lately.

 

 

 

Before you pray today, make your prayer list so you can focus on those you choose to pray for today.

“Command those who are rich in this present world not to be arrogant nor to put their hope in wealth, which is so uncertain, but to put their hope in God, who richly provides us with everything for our enjoyment.” 

~1 Timothy 6:17 NIV~

 

Josiah (Home Monday)

We are finally home!!! It was quite a stressful day yesterday waiting to be discharged…and it’s a bit of a long story but they were finally able to discharge us around 6pm last night. It feels so good to all be under the same roof again! Josiah was so excited to be home & he fell asleep watching us unload his stuff.

After 23 days in hospital for what started out as tracheitis and rhinovirus and then he ended up with Norovirus…we will definitely be doing “winter lock down”. We wish this wasn’t necessary but this was a big reminder for us that although he is doing really well, common illnesses can hit him REALLY hard.

TO GOD BE THE GLORY!!!
Job

 

I admire Job and KK so much!  They eagerly took on all the challenges of his medical needs.  I was thrilled to again read their closing statement, “TO GOD BE THE GLORY!!!”  I’m thrilled the doctors were able to get Josiah well again.  I know you are too.

 

 

 

Thankfulness, Day 6 – Today I am thankful for young parents like these who have a strong faith and big hearts.  May they be a shining example of daily Christian living to young parents and to others.  “To God be the glory!”

 

 

 

Scripture Writing – November 6 – I Thessalonians 5: 12-18

 

 

 

How will you show your faith and love this week?  Invest in others.  That reminds me of thee words of a favorite hymn.

Tuesday

Let the peace of Christ rule in your hearts, since as members of one body you were called to peace.

And be thankful.

~Colossians 3:15~

 

Today, I want to share an update on David.  It took a year to learn his two issues – MDA,  red blood cells not producing enough blood, and non-alcoholic cirrhosis of the liver.  We don’t know the causes of these diseases, but David has been very sick.  With good medical treatment at Ochsner, he has greatly improved.

I’ve been saying he is the best he has been since the first problems showed up.  Yesterday, we got two good reports.  David is doing more than “hanging in there”.  He feels and looks much better!  The two medical professionals we saw yesterday acknowledged he is doing well, not cured, but better than expected.

His blood level yesterday was 10, higher than it has been since he got sick.  He is in the “low normal range” and was not given Procrit for the first time in many weeks.  He has received 23 units of blood, but none have been needed in about four months.  His liver is doing well.  We go back in three months.  If all continues to do well, he will be put on a six month schedule for his liver.

I want to thank God for David’s improvement.  He has carried us through!  I also want to thank many of you who have him on your daily prayer list.  We are appreciative of all of you who tell us he has been prayed for daily.  Please continue too do so.

 

Thankfulness – Day 5 – Today, I am thankful for the wonderful improvement in David’s health.  Thanks to God for walking with us on the good days and the very difficult days.  Thanks to you for your prayers for David (and me).

Update on Josiah Huckaby

😎 How the cool kids watch TV in the hospital…you must have at least 1 arm & leg hanging out of the rails.

Josiah is back on his home vent settings & doing great with that! He’s down to 1L of oxygen. They are pretty sure the increased vent settings were due to his dehydration. We also found the cause of his GI issues. He tested positive for Norovirus. They said sometimes it just lingers a long time for some people. We tried to swap him back to our regular amount of water flushes we give at home but his labs went in the wrong direction. He also lost the 0.5 LB he had gained back over the last couple of days. They are putting him back on the increased water to see if that will correct the issue again. Once his electrolyte labs are stabilized we can go home! They are thinking early next week at the latest. To God be the glory!!!

 

 

 

Pray for Jimmy and Linda Williams  of Spring Creek.  Their youngest son, Rusty, passed away yesterday.  Rusty is no longer needs his wheelchair!

Carol B. Sealey‘s Update:

I want to thank everyone for all the prayers, phone calls, and text messages these past several months. I know Barbara Bennett Gaines has been keeping everyone updated on my condition but I wanted to update what’s going on. Back on May 21st I had surgery for colon cancer and then the nightmare began. After being sent home I developed abdominal Sepsis. I was put back in the hospital and put on antibiotics. After being sent back home, without any medication, I again came down with severe sepsis with septic shock. Everything in my body was shutting down. I was dependent on dialysis due to end stage renal disease. The doctors told my husband that he had to make a decision because I was never coming out of ICU. After Steve talked to our son and my sister he decided no, he wasn’t giving up. These doctors didn’t know that I have a higher doctor than they are and he wasn’t ready for me yet because all of a sudden I was coming back. There was so many folks, some I knew and others I didn’t know, praying for me. As of today I am cancer free, off of dialysis after being on it for nearly 3 months, kidneys all of a sudden kicked in and started working. I was in a wheelchair when I left the hospital because I could not feel my legs and could not walk. As of today I am walking with a walker inside the house but have to use a wheelchair outside. I still have a ways to go but each day is a little better. My God is awesome. Without him I wouldn’t be here today.

 

 

 

Update on Josiah Huckaby:

It did my heart good to walk in & see little man laughing this morning!!! He’s only given us some brief smiles over the last week. Sunday & Monday were good days!!! They were able to wean his oxygen from 4L to 2L. When he gets to 1.5L, we can start weaning his vent pressures back to home settings. He’s still having quite a bit of GI issues so they are running some extra tests to make sure we aren’t missing anything. They have swapped him from our regular feed schedule to a continuous feed (which means he is getting a small amount of formula all day) in hopes that the lower rate/volume will be less stressful on his stomach until the problem is resolved. We have no idea how much longer we will be here but praise the Lord we are finally headed in the right direction!!! To God be the glory! Job Huckaby
