Decision made

Scott called back and said that after discussing the tracheotomy with Barb (Amy's mom) and brother, who are both respiratory therapists, they have decided to wait and not "ok" the procedure at this time. We are all praying that the sprinting will continue more aggressively and he will be extubated as soon as possible. God knows the condition of little Jonah and we are once again placing him in the Lord's hands. When we are weak, then He is strong and we are relying on the Great physician to help and heal Jonah. "My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness." 2 Corinthians 12:9 "God is our refuge and strength, an ever-present help in trouble." Psalm 46:1 We will continue to pray for the Lord's will in Jonah's precious life.
Right before Scott called me I was at a store in San Luis and found a wonderful plaque that "jumped out" at me from the shelf. It says..."SUCH A BIG MIRACLE IN SUCH A LITTLE BOY." Of course I bought it right away with a big smile on my face thinking of how it will be put in Jonah's room at home. I felt such a sense of peace after the phone call from Scott that God is reassuring me that all is still ok and God is still in charge. We do have a wonderful loving Heavenly Father who cares about us and shows us His love in so many ways. Keep praying and God Bless you!
