Bronchoscopy

Jeremy, Jill, and J have been back in San Diego this week for more tests and follow-up procedures from his cleft palate surgery last month.  He saw Dr. Jones, a geneticist, on Wednesday.  She was very impressed with his cognitive and social development.  She said that he appears to be just fine except for a small skeletal build.  We will have a test done next year when we return for a check up.  But for now he is fine and we shouldn't worry.

He also met yesterday with Dr. Gosman who said he was healing perfectly.  She was impressed with his progress and gave us the go ahead to start him on baby foods.  Yay for J and his parents (who are having to get up in the middle of the night again b/c our baby boy is just so hungry)!

Today we ask for prayers for J and Dr. Magit.  Dr. Magit is our fabulous ENT who placed J's tubes at the beginning of his surgery last month.  As a result of J's respiratory problems following his surgery Dr. Magit and Dr. Gosman recommended he receive a bronchoscopy to see what might be going on.  In order to do this J has to be put under anesthesia again which is a bit of a concern.  Ultimately we know that the Lord is in control and that He will be the hands in the operating room.  Please join us in covering Dr. Magit and J (and the anesthesiologist) in prayer at 12:30pm Pacific--2:30pm Central--9:30pm Malawi.  The procedure should only take about 30 minutes.

We will update you later tonight.  To God be the Glory!
