I want to give an update on CJ from his car accident on July 4th. His intestines ruptured and he had to have emergency surgery. Everything from his colon backed up ito his stomach and it caused him to be septic. The surgery went well. We were told that he would have to be in ICU 3 or 4 days and 8 to 10 days total in the hospital. After less than 48 hours, CJ has been taken out of ICU and put into a regular room ~~ thank You, Jesus!!! He is still very weak and is not allowed to have any drink or food yet. He still has a ways to go. He is still being monitored for being septic. They have to meke sure the poison is not getting into his blood stream. The tube is still down his throat, pumping out the toxins from his body. He still has a catheter attached and really can't get up or walk on his own. But, the prognois is good and the doctors are amazed!!! His healing will be a process and it will take time. But, God is faithful! And I know that what seemed to be a setback will be an awesome testimony to the faithfulness of God! Also, I want to say thank you to everyone who is praying, visiting, calling, sending text messages and sending cards and other things. You have NO idea how that has encouraged CJ, lifted his spirits, strengthened him and shown him the Love of the Father! That is just what he needed and the Lord used you to do it! Isn't He awesome? Please keep up the prayers and visits! He needs grace and strength and the love and support of the Body to get thru this! Thank you all once again! I will update you when I can.
One more thing ~~ please be praying for Jessica and me as we spend our days and nights at the hospital taking care of him! Thanks again!
