. HI guys I'll let my publicist Barbara write this one update below on our family....thanks for your love and prayers this email is from her.
My heart was so sad to hear this news of Ruby's test results but again...I have a choice. I believe God is faithful.
Today I woke up and turned to a verse that said" there is healing in the tongue!" God doesn't LIE
Hello friends
There are several developments with Ruby that I want to share with you. Last week the Pulmonologist as a precaution decided to repeat the all night sleep test at the hospital before making final decision about taking her off oxygen. Kerri received a call yesterday that she was still having some desats (stopping breathing) and sleep apnea so she will have to continue to use the oxygen at night. She has some nasal congestion and the doctor said that may contribute to the problem but it also may be caused from a slightly enlarged tongue. We ask for prayers her tongue is perfect!
We have several specific prayer requests and the first of course being that her lungs will strengthen and she will be able to discontinue the oxygen. The other being that her muscle tone mainly in her neck, arms, and legs will strengthen and aline and that her tongue is perfectly sized and not causing any problems. Also please pray that her congestion will clear up.
On the positive side both the physical therapist and occupational therapist who come twice a week say her muscles are getting stronger each visit and she is making good improvement.Her vision test was absolutely perfect!
Some of you have also asked about Mark and he also needs prayer. He is taking a very strong medicine for psoriasis which is working but also has serious side effects, one being a compromised immune system so he has had a very severe respiratory infection since we arrived He felt well enough to drive up over the weekend and sounded better but he has to take another shot this week. Please pray for stronger immune system as he works with kids all day and picks up their germs.
Our family is so appreciative of all your prayers and we know that God hears and answers our prayers. Ruby is such a Joy to all of us and is the sweetest baby in the world. Nana is teaching her to sing "Jesus Loves Me" and she responds by cooing and laughing. Her big sister also spends time talking and playing with her so we know they will be a team as Ruby gets older. It's so much fun to watch them together.
.
Blessings,
Barbara
