- The dialysis machine is being very effective - so far the machine has drained about 35 litres of fluid from Brent's body (that's alot of fluid and pressure for his body) - this is the equivalent of about 35 lbs.
- Before the dialysis - Brent was suffering from alot of pressure with the fluid building up in his body - now he's looking great as the swelling is coming down
- The trickle feed is once again attached - in other words - nourishment is being fed to him and directed to his stomach - his trickle feed is at 10 mL - there is no vomiting
- The Nintendo Wii is now in his room - no he won't be playing video games (not yet anyhow), but the Wii will be used to help Brent exercise and strengthen his body - cool eh?
- The ongoing story of the blood pressure - the blood pressure is still high and and needs to become more stable
- Brently will be very happy tonight - he won't be using Daddy's IPOD anymore - Scot figured out the code to get into Brent's IPOD and now it's working - Brent will be listening to his own music once again
Scot and Carolyn (Cary) thank you for your prayers. They are working so please keep on praying.
Keep hoping.Keep loving.Keep praying.
Keeping you all in my thoughts....this post brought a smile to my face....keep moving in the right direction Brent!!!

Wii Brent!!! So enjoy the exercise. One day it will be a full workout for you and maybe some guitar hero.
ReplyDeleteI asked our sons if there was guitar hero for Worship music... they laughed and said why bother.... someone worshiping God and Jesus always has their hands in the air, guitar hero is pointless for a evangelical christian. LOL.
Holding you close and knowing God loves you.
Rejoicing with you all in this wonderful news! Keep up the great work Brent!! So glad for you Scot and Cary to have your precious boy making positive, healing strides!!! We will keep on praying and praising God for the healing work He is doing in all of your lives!! God bless you all! Love, The Dyck's
ReplyDeleteWe live in Warman..we don't personally know you but we are praying for Brent to keep on fighting and for you both to have the strenth to keep cheering him on. We have an amazing Heavenly Father..let him hold you, guide you and be your source of strength. ...and we weill also pray for your "parking angels" at Regina General...from experience, finding parking there can be quite a challenge.
