Today was awesome! The feeding tube is out folks. Maverick is eating everything we give him, and he's pooping like a champ. The culture came back negative which means if it shows up tomorrow with nothing on it Maverick is in the clear. The one thing we would like for you to continue to pray for is his central line. They said it seemed a little "red and irritated.". It would really suck if the thing they put in to prevent infection was the one thing that actually gave him one. So keep praying infection would stay away. Terri and I are so excited to get this little dude home. We will keep you all posted on the culture. Thank you for your prayers.
p.s. I don't usually get sappy about songs but if you get a chance, try to listen to "Hear Our Prayers" by "The Glorious Unseen". This song pretty much wraps up our first week with Maverick. It might be that fatherhood is making me soft but, this song rocked me.
not soft bro...judt making you malleable in the hands of God...to paraphrase..."as iron sharpens iron so one man (or one man's son sharpens another...praying for you bro
