So do not throw away this confident trust in the Lord.  Remember the great reward it brings you.  Patient endurance is what you need now...  Hebrews 10:35-36

Today is the miracle babies' one month birthday!

Mckayla weighs 2 pounds, 5 ounces.  She is responding well to the antibiotics to clear her pneumonia. 

Madilynn weighs 2 pounds, 10 ounces.  She is on on antibiotics for her respiratory infection.  She has not had much of a change. 

Mackenzie weighs 2 pounds, 3 ounces.  She had 50 *bradys through the night and may need to be **intubated again. Unfortunately she is still vomiting.  This week's doctor does not want to take her off her mother's milk.  They are going to remove the tube going all the way to her intestine and just let it go to her stomach and cut back on the amount of mother's milk.

Christine got to hold all three girls!! 

*bradycardia-a pause in breathing that causes a drop in oxygen levels
**intubated-place the breathing tube back in to give her oxygen

Thank you for your faithful intercession on the miracle babies' behalf.   We appreciate you all very much!
