Family and Friends
We are asking for your prayers on behalf of our son, Nathanael. He woke up this morning having a rough time breathing. After several asthma medications at home and in the doctor's office he was sent to Kosair Children's Hospital ER. He has received many breathing treatments and medications here as well, but his lungs aren't working well enough to get oxygen to his body as he needs. He will be spending the night at the hospital and receive more treatments and medications throughout the night. The doctors and nurses are having a hard time deciding just how serious his condition is, deciding whether he needs to be admitted to the ICU for intense treatment and monitoring, or if he can be admitted to a regular room for treatment. We are not sure how long he will have to stay, that depends on how well his body responds to the treatments. At this time his condition is not life-threatening, but the doctors are cautioning us that he could make a sudden turn for the worse.
He has been a great patient, accepting treatment after treatment, being poked and inturrepted, without much complaint. Please pray for his continued good spirits with the doctors and nurses along with the Lord's healing hand to be upon his body to make his lungs work properly.
