Out of the Hospital

Brent is out of the hospital once again. It is so good to have him home. He went to youth tonight and tomorrow he writes his 1st final exam...English.

Brent's abscess is healing nicely. Dr. Miller put a drain into the abscess on Wednesday, January 12th. They did a sinogram through the drain which showed that there was no connection between the abscess and the colon or the bowel. They also did a contrast study to see if there was still a leak in the colon. There was no leak found. So alas Brent is once again a mystery to his Doctors. We praise the Lord for healing since Brent's last contrast study on January 5th in Regina showed that there was a very small leak.

Brent is feeling good and happy to be at home in his own bed...even though he has to study and take his finals.

Now our prayer request is that since there is no leak that maybe he can have his stoma closed a little sooner than planned (they were thinking possibly July).

Thank you for your prayers.

Keep hoping. Keep loving. Keep praying.
