Laney's Praise

Hello Everyone,

I just wanted to send an update on Trevor. Craig and I truly appreciate all of your prayers for him. He saw the neurologist a couple of weeks ago, and he said that Trevor has probably escaped any long term effects from the complications he had at birth. He said that "we can't say that for sure, but it appears that he has". He does want to go ahead with another EEG just to see how it looks since he did still have some seizure activity on the last one, otherwise it was nearly normal. This is a praise because if you are going to have abnormalities, you want it to be seizure activity because it is treatable, the other stuff is not. So even if it does still show seizure activity, they may not even treat him unless he begins to have symptoms.

Also, Trevor saw the growth and development doctor this past Friday. She gave us a very good report. Everything she looks at was either "normal" or "great"!! She again reminded me of how very blessed we are to have him. She told me that a true knot (this is what caused all the problems , he had an actual knot in his cord and it was very tight, which completely cut off his oxygen supply) is very serious and lots of times the babies don't survive, or can have serious long term effects. So the fact that he is alive and doing so well is amazing. He's our miracle!!!!! May all the praise and glory go to God, who is able to do exceedingly abundantly above all that we ask or think (Eph. 3:20).

Craig and I also want to thank you all again for the giftcard to Babies R Us. We are so blessed to be a part of such a giving and loving group of people. We love you all.

Now, I would like to ask for your prayers once more. Craig is battleing his 28th or 29th kidney stone (I know , it's insane!). This one is apparently huge, and the chances of him passing it are pretty slim. So, he goes in tomorrow to have it busted. Thank God for lithotripsy!! Please pray for him as he undergoes the procedure and for his recovery.

Thank you all again for your prayers.

In Christ's Love,

Tracy
