Will's Good News

Don't you just want to pick him up and squeeze him?! Will's mom & dad, my sister Angie & her husband Joe, got really great news this morning! Read the following from Will's Carepage...

Well, about an hour ago Will's doctor and I decided not to do a PIK line. This is a huge answer to prayer! Will was going to have to go under anesthesia with full intubation for this procedure due to the fact that he coded during anesthesia during February. I have been very anxious about this procedure all weekend. I woke up this morning with a huge question of why is this risk necessary for just 1 1/2 weeks more of IV antibiotics? This is the clarity that I have prayed for, and have asked you all to pray for for Joe and I. It is so hard to think clearly and make vital decisions when you are so weary and worried. Will was on the OR schedule this morning, but when the team arrived I asked them to take him off the schedule, and later when Will's pulmonologist arrived he totally agreed that it was too great a risk to place the PIK line. A huge sigh of relief! What this means, though, is that Will will need to remain here until the antibiotics are complete...about 10 more days. Know that we are very well cared for here at Dell, and the staff have gone out of their way to help us through this difficult time. The healing continues for all of us! Thank you for your sweet messages and continuing to lift us up. Love Joe Angie Gabe and Will

Thank you, Lord, for making the decision so evident. Please continue praying for Will's recovery. He's still a sick little guy, but it sounds like he is on the road to recovery!
