Asher's progress

From Judy:

Paul and I want to thank all of you who prayed for our little grandson, Asher. I just spoke to my son Mark this morning and he gave me the latest details on Asher’s condition.

According to Mark, Asher was in a great deal of pain the day of the surgery but as time progressed, the pain began to subside with the exception of one of the staples that was digging into Asher’s little tummy. Once Jess pointed that out to the nurses, they wrapped some sort of foam around it and Asher became more relaxed.

Mark also said that for the first time ever, Asher had a full belly due to the use of his feeding tube. Evidently, he became quite content afterwards just laying there playing with his toys. And now that he has also had surgery to correct his reflux, there was no heartburn!!!

Praise the Lord for how He has answered our prayers on behalf of our little miracle-man.

It’s likely that Jess and Mark will be able to take Asher home today or tomorrow.

We’ll likely go up to visit sometime in the not-too-distant future. At that time, I’ll take some pictures so you can all see how much he has grown.

Once again, thank you for standing with us for Asher’s healing.

Lots of love,

Judy
