Nathan and Owen

Nathan and Owen are both having good days. Preston and I got a huge surprise when we went into the NICU on Monday night. Nathan was off the ventilator. He is making such a huge amount of progress. We praise God for we know He is the one who is miraculously healing Nathan. We also give him glory because we know he is working his mighty power through the loving and very competent medical staff in the NICU. Please continue to pray for both boys. Please specifically pray that Owen would begin making progress. He is remaining stable but is still not ready to come off either of his ventilators and his creatinine numbers are back up to 1.4 (we want them below 1.0). They also had to stop feeding him because he had a little residual and they wanted to make sure he was not getting an infection. We really appreciate all your prayers.

This is Nathan sucking on the paci they gave him this morning.

Here are a few pictures of Owen.
