Another Day at TCH

Today, (New Year's Day) was very eventful with an echocardiagram, x-ray and lots of visitors!  They were looking for fluid around the heart, but everything came back negative-no fluid!  So that's good! Last night around 11:00 Jake had a headache and they gave him ibuprofen, so we didn't get a true test of whether or not there was fever! Praying again tonight for no fever!  Please just continue also for his heart to "remodel" as it functions with the new cow valve! 

He is getting very discouraged, so all the visitors today meant so much. Especially because he got to look at someone else's face besides Matt, Jenni and me! Actually just Matt and me! haha! Jenni is a bright spot in his day! But, your visits mean so much, especially right now while he's just receiving the IV antibiotics because he can walk around anywhere he wants and hang out in the game room or go to McDonald's. It's definitely a highlight in our day. Doesn't every heart institute have a McDonald's? Thank you for loving him and continuing to keep him in your prayers.

I close tonight relying on the knowledge that our God is sovereign.

All our love and all God's best to you!
