Greetings, friends. Glory is still recovering and we will likely be here through the weekend, which is what we would have expected. We do hope to see some more progress and therefore a glimmer of hope in leaving soon, but thus far she is steady in her fluid output. Talking with Dr. Kerr, this means that her pneumonia is still active and hurting her body. The longer we are here in the hospital, the greater the chances become of some other complication arising. So while I have been mentioning Glory's progress, we still do have some great concerns for her well being.
Additionally, Glory has been hurting more. Not with some great dramatic pain, but I am told that the chest tubes are very uncomfortable. We are currently considering if and what stronger pain medications would be acceptable for her.
Finally, Alesha and I are slowly wearing down. Alesha more so than myself, but then Alesha is caring for the little baby in her womb too. I have not been able to discuss with her our future plans to remedy this, but I do know that the Lord Jesus will give us strength to over come and wisdom to know what to do...it seems to be our turn to listen to him, and then obey*.
*Dear sinner, have you learned to obey the voice of the great Physician? Have you felt how comforting his tender, loving hands can be on your soul? Even in times of difficulty, he can bring relief. If not, or if you are confounded as to how we are doing so well mentally in this trying time, then please let me know and let us reason together about the wonderful grace of Jesus, or else I pray that the hound dog of heaven shall pursue you.
In the comforting care of the Creator of life,
Taylor
