JELL-O Time!

Author: Casey | Posted in: Home Life & Family, Spiritual

JELL-OWell, on Saturday in the middle of the night my dad pulled out the drainage tube in his nose. He must have done it in his sleep because he said that he didn’t remember doing it. They also had him on some other medication that made him a little “loopy” so that might have contributed to it as well. After hearing this, the doctor decided just to wait and see how he responds without the tube. It’s been about 72 hours and he’s now doing great!

He had an X-Ray this morning to see how his intestines were healing, and after looking at the results, the doctor came back and told him that he was “Amazed”! He said that stuff was getting through and he could start drinking water and eating Jell-O! I’m sure my dad was SUPER excited to hear that news after not eating or drinking anything in over a week.

The doctor also said that he will probably be able to go home soon, but will still be on an IV and feeding tube for a while. He’ll keep waiting for everything to fully heal, but at least he’ll be able to rest at home. God just continues to answer all of our prayers, so don’t stop praying!

    Kurt, Roxy, here’s a promise for you…
    Isaiah 58:11–”The LORD will guide you always; he will satisfy your needs in a sun-scorched land and will strengthen your frame. You will be like a well-watered garden, like a spring whose waters never fail.”
    No matter where we are, Cozumel, Atlanta, Boston, where ever – we are thinking and praying for you and longing for the days we can share laughter again!

    That’s great news! Maybe you can convince the Dr. to try some Bruster’s Ice Cream next!

    We continue to pray for a complete and speedy recovery!
