Brief Update

Due to the emails, phone calls, and prayers we have received over the last couple of very long days, I thought I would post a brief update.

Aiden is on Day #4 of hospitalization. He is progressing very well and has not encountered any setbacks, thankfully. He is, however, still on a very small amount of oxygen and we continue to work on weaning him off. He is very congested so he needs the oxygen to get the amount of air his body requires. He is eating well and is more alert than he was a few days ago. It is basically a waiting game for his oxygen saturation levels to remain at a normal level while he is breathing at rest for several hours. I am still at the hospital taking care of Aiden while John is at home with Luke and Liam.

Overall, Luke and Liam are doing much better and you probably would not know that they have been sick by looking at them. They are still typical two year olds with lots and lots of energy. They have been keeping John quite busy at home. They are a bit out of sorts with all that is going on and keep asking about "Mommy and Baby". Liam will have his additional testing on Monday due to his abnormal chest x-ray so please continue to pray for the results of this test and for Liam's quick recovery after the testing.

Thank you all again for your continued thoughts and prayers. I am posting a few pictures of the boys at a place where they have open gymnastics for preschool age kids, playing the piano at school, and a few of Aiden from about a week ago before the RSV and other medical issues that we are dealing with right now.
