Baby Miles

I talked to Amber yesterday afternoon and Miles is doing well!
Two nights ago he developed a brain bleed b/c of the anticoagulants he had to be on for the ECMO. They decided yesterday to take him off of the ECMO and put him back on the vent. We prayed like crazy yesterday (and still are!) and Miles did fine! When I talked to Amber he was on the vent, his oxygen levels were good and he was in surgery having repair done on his carotid artery where they had the ECMO line in. God has shown is awesomeness through this. My faith has been strengthened by the Flinn's story following a weak time. I wonder what would have happened if things wouldn't have gone so well...I believe I would be feeling the same way after seeing Tommy and Amber's faith and trust in the Lord and seeing how they were just placing everything in His hands. God is good regardless of the outcome.
Miles is doing well, but is still very sick. Please pray for his continued healing, that he would tolerate being on the vent well. Please pray that the bleeding in his brain resolves, the blood gets reabsorbed and he has no cognitive/development difficulties in the future. Please pray for his lungs to continue to heal. He still has the infections and holes in them. Please pray for Tommy and Amber, that the Lord will continue to sustain them and they can get rest and spend lots of time with their sweet boy! :)
...if anyone wants to write them a letter/note of prayer/encouragement (regardless of whether or not you know them!) Please email it to me at nickandabby@gmail.com or if you live nearby, you can swing by and drop it off....we are going to put together a scrapbook for them and get it to them next weekend (Aug 22/23). Nick, Adelyn and I are leaving for AZ tonight to visit family, so I'll make sure to check my email while we are there :)
thank you for your prayers! The Flinn's really appreciate it and have been so encouraged!
