I got to see all my boys, all at once today! It was a teeny tiny glimpse of what it will be like when we come home, and I hope for that!
All these days at home, Grandma has been caring for our boys. Not a small task. We have had friends help her by taking the boys on play dates, have had many meals delivered. As Dave was sick, Donna visited, and Carol stayed with me for a couple days. We have had more offers to help than needs! I am so thankful for the way our friends have been carrying our family!
On Mother’s Day last week the Kruses from the North came to Grandma’s, took everyone for a long hike, our nephew mowed the lawn, and they had a birthday party for another nephew. It was very fun and a great distraction! Last wednesday Dave’s sister Melissa and some of her kids came to help Grandma with the boys. We are so blessed to have such wonderful family!
Noah
Today they are trying a diuretic to try and rid Noah’s body of any extra fluid that may be around his lungs and heart which could be causing him to require oxygen. He gets another dose tonight, so praying it helps!
Platelets were down again. They are testing him again tonight.
He nursed well about 3 times today! This is a huge improvement!!
I feel like we made a little progress!!

Courtney!! Oh my word Noah is adorable!! I am so grateful God is strengthening you and using so many to encourage you and help you through this time. It is beautiful! I praise Him for the progress today and the feelings of hope and progress He has granted you. Thank you so much for sharing these precious pictures and this miraculous journey so that we may all see God’s hand! Love you! Praying for God’s masterpiece named Noah and for each of you!
Still praying continuously for you all – God IS able!
Praise God for giving you strength and providing the extra hands needed at this time. God Bless you and yours.
