Update I can Honestly say Today was one of the hardest
days for not only J.T. But for Christie
and Myself in Weeks. He had a hard night
to start things off. Seems to be dealing
with lots of Anxiety and emotions. They
has scheduled an Endoscopy for around lunch so he was NPO which is no food or
drink. We got up and gave him his
shower. Christie and I got checked off
so we can give him a shower anytime he wants.
By the time all that is done he's getting prepped for the
procedure. We can already tell he's just
hungry, frustrated, and generally upset. We finally get all the paperwork and
he has the procedure . The results of
which are actually Great. He has no
problems . He wakes up and when we walk
in he looks at me a says "it did not go well " . This kid was pulling our leg. That was really funny . After this point things take a wrong turn. He
has trouble breathing , I have to Cough
assist, and then his Oxygen level drops.
He gets even more anxious and is
not feeling well at all. They get to the
room and leave the Oxygen on which scares me.
He is very Nauseas and very tired.
He says he has a lot of secretions which freaks him and us out. We are
wondering is this thing going backwards?
He takes an small nap. He is so
sick he can not eat. Not to mention he
has a group of friends who had drive 5hours to see him who have unexpectedly
waited for 2-3 hours just for a chance to see him. he finally wakes up and I am unsure if he
will even be able to stay awake. I'm
hoping at best hey can see him 30 minutes.
We'll never underestimate Gods Power or the Power of seeing the smiling
faces of Good Friends. As soon as Ethan
Crowder, Will Jenkins, Isaac Nickels, , Luke Jarnigan , Josh Drinnon, Stephanie
Smith, and Cameron Smith walked in it was like you turned a light switch
on. He perked up and had a great time
visiting with them. They watched the
second half of Bench Warmers. He was able
to eat some saltine crackers, a little Tomato Bisque and some Cheese Cake. The Nausea did return and he had some
problems with secretions but he did improve and they did take away the
Oxygen. He got a surprise visit from
Jaden Henard and his Parents Phillip and Karen.
You could just see how much Jaden cared for and worried about J.T. It was so Heart Warming . He is praying every day. They also brought some Chocolate covered
Strawberries. He had a couple of more
Visitors when Lendon Redwine and his Mother.
They brought him done workout gear and some fresh Peaches. Let's all pray that he rests better. Please pray that he can deal with the things
he is facing from the mental side. God
only knows what thoughts and questions he has.
We are hoping for things to get back on a more positive track
tomorrow's. We are so thankful for God
sending a whole wave of folks when I would have bet he was not up for it that
stepped in and brightened his day and ours too.
Thank You Jesus for Providing just what we need at the exact
moment. Pray for not only His Strength but for Ours. Pray for U detests ding and most of All God's
Grace and Healing. #fightfor5
