Heading Home

Samuel is doing fairly well, though he really doesn't like the neoprene Velcro wrap thing that's keeping the gauze on his ear. He reaches up and pulls it back over his head or down over his eyes. Funny boy. So, unfortunately for him, we've had to restrain his arms with something they call "Welcome Sleeves" that keep him from being able to bend his elbows. Welcome? By whom? Anyway, he's finally given over to sleep again.

We've been discharged and are hanging out at Sara's brother's house right now for a bit. Big kids have had some great cousin time yesterday and today. We'll be heading back to Greenville probably within an hour or so, once we get our stuff together.

Overnight Samuel slept from 10-11:30 and then from 4-6:30. (I've never watched Australian rules football before, but it sure was interesting at 2 in the morning.)

Well, it seems we've got another surgery behind us. Please continue to pray for Samuel's recovery: infection free, incisions staying closed, not fighting it too much. Thank you for your faithfulness and support. Indeed, the Lord has been good to us.
