Matthew update 12-15-2008

Today is the day that we bring Matthew home. We are at this time waiting in a coffee shop for the billing department to call us. They have to write up and revise our bill and then we can pay it and take Matthew home.

He is growing and doing good. The doctors were slightly concerned about the size of the soft spot on his head earlier last week. He has a Tate head (small) and not the Smith one (huge) like my other kids. Thankfully, his head has grown since birth and the plate in the back moved to enlarge the soft spot. This would not have kept him in the hospital, but would have been something we had to keep an eye on.

Yesterday I wrote a blog, but could not connect to the internet. I will try to post that when we get home tonight.

Thank you everyone for your prayers. Please continue to pray for little Matthew, for his health, as if he gets sick again (this is cold and flu season in Honduras) he will probably be put back in the hospital.

  2. We'll be praying for you all. I know the challenges that you'll be facing with Matthew's health. It is such a comfort to have him home and yet a little scary at the same time.
    We love you all and look forward to the next update.
