There was no update yesterday because things are pretty much the same.
Noah is starting to have sedation issues from being on the narcotics for a while now. His body is requiring even more to keep him comfortable and asleep. His pupils enlarge, his BP and heart rate go up, and his renals go down, and his skin becomes very modeled or blotchy looking. Today, they have gone up on his atavan and will possibly go up on his fentnal. All his organs are improving and functioning except his kidneys. His kidney function is low however, he is still producing urine.
So, a couple specific things I would like us all to focus on in prayer, are his kidney function to improve like the rest of his organs and his brain to show no signs of stroke or bleeding when we eventually wake him up. Thank you :)
I would also like to thank all the visitors we have had these past few days. It means a LOT to Aaron and I to experience the support and love. Thank you to those who have brought their little ones along with them so that I may have a little "mommy therapy" and hold your precious child as I can not do with Noah just yet. It warms my heart to feel a little normalcy in that small moment :) Thank you to everyone who have provided meals and goodies. Thank you to everyone for your quick response on sending me lotion... I now have a good variety of scents to choose from :)
And as always, thank you for holding my little family in prayer and love.

- Pray For Baby Noah
- Welcome to Noah's blog! We thank you for following us on our God-led journey and thank you for all your thoughts and prayers! Noah was born June 22, 2009 with many anatomical birth defects and underwent his first major surgery when he was just 4 days old. He has been in and out of the hospital since day one and has had a total of 4 major surgeries to date, with his latest one being the most extreme and difficult - his first open heart surgery on November 4 and December 17th, 2010. He is a warrior and this is his journey...
