Evening Day 19 NICU update

Will has done great so far being off the ventilator. His blood gases have been great tonight so he will not have another one tonight. He is in a chin strap to keep him from having his mouth open and should breathe better with his mouth being closed. Please pray for him as he continues with his new phase in life. Pray that he can continue to handle being off the ventilator and that he will have another good night. Momma and daddy are doing much better knowing that he is doing so well. We were a little uneasy today but this is all apart of the NICU roller coaster. We had to take a step back from worrying too much and listen to God and know that he is in control and he continues to perform miracles in Will's life every single day. We know the power of God and we are amazed by his mighty works he is exhibiting to us everyday.

Please say a special prayer for Will's roommate, Avery, who will undergo surgery tomorrow due to a hole in her heart not closing. Also pray for her parents too as they try and get some rest tonight even though we know it won't be easy.

Good night and here is how Will will sleep tonight.
