Yes prayers do work so please keep them coming, this is what Jennifer just posted The doctors cannot explain what has happened today. Last night I watched my youngest son as he began slipping away from me. This morning Noah and I were told he had a terminal illness. We had two options: to let him die naturally on the ventilator or to gather our families and hold him while they turned the support off. A test was sent and the medical staff were certain they were correct. As the day progressed Trevor began showing signs of life again. The monitor readings seemed to change within five minutes of Noah and I receiving the news that he was dying. The med staff had said if he began to die he would not be resuscitated because his illness was terminal. Being a mother I fought them. I demanded as long as his heart continued to beat I would not end support. Our families were brought in and met Trevor. Tristen was overjoyed to meet his brother. We anxiously waited for the lab results: NEGATIVE! I screamed, Noah and I grabbed each other in excitement. The team rushed in to his side once again. He is still gravely ill. They are not certain what is wrong, but they are chasing the diagnosis. He will have a third blood transfusion tonight. He is still at max life support, but he is currently maintaining. The neonatologist said Something has happened today. Im not sure if Trevor is trying to tell us something, or if it was prayer. But the baby I saw this morning is not the baby that lay before me now. I want to say a HUGE thank you to Brian Shearer for praying at Trevors bedside today and spending all day with us and our families, to our loved ones who joined us to meet Trevor, and EVERYONE who has prayed and continues to pray for Trevor. I know God heard you all today and he was with us. I owe each and every one of you my life. Words cannot express how thankful I am. The doctors have warned that 50% of babies with lung disease will not survive, that Trevor is still septic and his liver and kidneys are trying to shut down. That we jumped one hurdle but have several more on a very long dangerous journey. But they have said lets take it together in baby steps. As I sign off tonight I am smiling (still worried, but smiling). God granted me ONE MORE DAY!!!
