Pray for Truman!

Micah & Krista - Truman & Big Brother Lincoln

Updates from Micah's Facebook Page ...

Saturday (pm) - Well, it has been awhile since I updated. I don't have time right now to give as detailed of an update as I would like! Truman does now have his feeding tube and it has been a real blessing so far. Krista and I would expecially covet your prayers now. Krista and Lincoln have been fighting a cold the last week. It is a cold that causes lots of congestion. It seems as though Truman is now getting it. This is a fairly serious problem. In the last few hours it has been a struggle for Truman to breathe correctly and confortably. Please pray that he will be able to get some rest and Krista and I would have wisdom and peace! Thanks!

Such an adorable smile!  Hard to believe anything could
be wrong with this little guy!!
Sunday (am) - Well, His night was better then expected! After I sent out the first update, Truman was able to calm down and his breathing became a lot better. This morning it is once again a struggle. Continue to pray for us! These are trying times!!

Sunday (noon) - Pray for Truman! He is in serious condition! Pray that he will either go peacefully or that he would pull through easily!  We are waiting on an ambulance to take us to UVA

                                                                  
Sunday (pm) - What a day! Truman will be at UVA for the night. Tomorrow we will decide what to do. They feel like he will make it through the night, but the prognosis isn't good. Thanks for your prayers and continue to lift us up!

Monday (am) - During the night the doctors did chest x rays and found that Truman may have Pneumonia. They are now treating that. He seems to have stabilized in the night some and his breathing doesn't seem as labored. I don't know what Truman will be like when we take him off all the equipment. I am confident from talking to the doctors that if we hadn't come to the hospital when we did that he wouldn't be alive now. Pray that Krista and I will have wisdom on how far to go medically, and when it is time to just lay him in Jesus hands to take home.

Monday (noon) - Well, this is quite a journey! We are so thankful for all our friends and family that are lifting us up. It is humbling to know that so many are lifting us up in prayer! Some of you don't even know us! Well, we are at a crossroads. There have been decisions that have been hard to make through this whole ordeal, but none that are quite to the degree that the decisions have been today. We have decided to keep Truman on his breathing assist for today and tonight. If there haven't been any improvements by morning we are planning or releasing him to Jesus. Our prayer is that if it is Gods will for us to keep him here that there would be a clear sign during the night. The hardest thing would be if there was just a little improvement in the morning! Thanks so much for all your love and encouragement!

  1. Let them know there are Oklahomans praying. I can't imagine what they are going through and I sure don't know how anyone could do it without the Lord.
