Here We Are

Here we are at home again! Micah was discharged this afternoon from the hospital. We remain cautiously optimistic that whatever he had is gone. Dr. Berman believes Micah had a virus that led to the onset of something called intussusception . Basically, a part of the bowels telescopes over another part causing extreme pain, vomiting, diarrhea and many other things not so fine and pleasant.

Micah has done well being home this afternoon. He even showed that sinful temper which is probably a whole lot like his daddy as opposed to his mommy. He enjoyed swinging and playing basketball with Isaac and Ethan.

We are not scheduled to go back until Monday. I hope Micah, all the illnesses and complications know what the schedule is. Thank you for praying. Please continue as often as God brings our family to mind.

It was such a joy to see Isaac's face when Sarah came to the door yesterday....pure joy. "Who's home???" he asked her, grinning ear to ear. And this was just after he had told me on the playground that afternoon, "Micah's still at the hospital and I like to go see him, but it's a super long trip there and a super long trip back." Our class will continue to pray for sweet Micah, and the rest of your family.

It's good to hear that he's home. Thanks for keeping us updated. We feel out of the loop over here in Western NC, but are still remembering to pray for Micah and the rest of you!

Keep up the faith and I can somewhat understand, as I too have Hep-C, Liver disease. I gone through some hard treatment in the past and do not want to go through it again.
