Still on the Cipap

Well she is still on the Cipap but we are not out of the woods yet.  She is still breathing quite a bit and so they are going to watch her like a hawk tonight and make sure that she is doing okay.  They will check her gases (CO2, O2, etc.) and lactate throughout the night.  Please pray for her to become more comfortable on the Cipap machine than she currently is.  Also pray for her lungs to open up fully to where she will not have to work so hard to breathe.  It hurts me so much to watch my girl struggle this much, but I know that this is just another step of recovery.  Please also pray for Sarah and I to have peace and strength for tonight and all the days ahead.

Some other specific prayer requests:
1)  Pray for her tonight and that she will rest peacefully.  Pray for her lungs and for her breathing tonight to improve greatly as well!
2)  Pray for her heart to continue to function really well!
3)  Pray for the rest of her body, that during this recovery process everything will continue to function properly.

  8. Hang in there. God is closer to you now than you know. Lean on God and ya'll will do fine. This is just a small bump in the road to recovery. Remember the foot prints in the sand, at this moment you are only going to see one cause God is caring you, just lean on him. He won't put more on you than you can handle. I know, I have been there. Still praying and believing that God has great plans for Little Emma.
    God is good, God is great!
