The past twelve hours have been very discouraging for Kaycee and I. However, our hopes are renewed this morning. Thank you Lord that our present sufferings are not worth comparing with the glory that will be revealed in us (Romans 8:18).
The c.diff colitis seems to be improving but the abdominal distension is not. This is what baffles the doctors and what indicates that there is still an unresolved underlying problem. For the time being, Kylie will stay sedated, intubated, and ventilated. An ultrasound has been ordered for this morning to look for any new fluid accumulation.
If there is no improvement in her abdominal distention in the next few days, the surgeons seem to be weighing the possibilities of surgery. This is an ongoing discussion with the entire pediatric surgical team, and we appreciate their careful deliberation on Kylie’s case. Please pray that they will be able to make the right decision for Kylie regarding surgery.
She continues to rest peacefully this morning, the waiting continues, and we again express our gratitude for your prayers.

Thank you for sharing your life with us. What a tremendous testimony of your faith in Jesus Christ. We are praying for all of you.

We are grateful for your updates on Kylie. We are praying for God's healing touch. These are some of the toughest times for parents - when their children are sick or hurt. A verse that helped me when my son was seriously injured in a car accident was Psalm 46:1. All of Psalm 46 is a great encouragement but the first verse was the one that I clung to.
We pray that you find comfort in His loving arms through His Word.

We will continue to pray. We know that God is ABLE, just as you have said. Focus your sights on Him. Your steady faith is a precious testimony of grace.
Much love,
Matt and Cari, Cade & Ava
