G tube surgery and HEARING!!


Jonathan will be getting surgery tomorrow, this surgery will help him gain the weight he needs to develop. A g tube is placed directly in his belly and then he can eat by mouth (without the current tube thats down his nose and into his belly) and not have any irrating tube in his throat. At night we can pump his needed calories he didn't get throught the day into his tube, or as we will refer to it tubie tube! I am very worried about this surgery eventhough its only a 20 minute procedure and the surgeon that did a phenominal job on his PDA when he was an ity bity 2lbs is going to do this surgery. We will be in the hospital for 2 to 3 days depending on how Jonathan feels, I hate seeing him in pain! We know he is going to do fine, GOD has shown us so many examples of his faithfulness and love, Jonathan is just a miracle and we love him so much!

Well Jonathans hearing... When we came home from beaumont hospital it was said to us that Jonathan was profoundly deaf and we have noticed his hearing just getting better, so at the University of Michigan they took another hearing test a couple days ago and listen very carefully Jonathan has mild to moderate hearing loss did you hear that o.k if you didn't Jonathan has MILD to moderate hearing loss PRAISE GOD, is he not worthy of praise, right here this very blog you are reading is the works of the LORD happening I just want to shout to the world that GOD deserves all the praise!! Get this it gets better, the audiologist that did the test also fit him for hearing aides and said its possible he outgrows these and doesn't need them, that it seems his hearing is getting better as he grows!! GOD is good!!

Well tomorrow is the big day and please keep us in your prayers!

Love you all!!
