"I know that the LORD is great, that our Lord is greater than all gods.  The LORD does whatever pleases him, in the heavens and on the earth, in the seas and all their depths. " Ps 135: 5-6

Nate had a relatively good day today.  All his dressings were changed, and they looked good.

Nate did not need dialysis today.  He will be having dialysis tomorrow though. 

Nate was up in the neuro chair again today and did his physio in the chair, which meant he know had to fight gravity as well.  This really tired him out, but it was neat to see how much he can do.

Nate was also told today that he is not getting enough calories and so they are thinking of putting a feeding tube in to give him high calorie nutrition.  They will not put the feeding tube in if Nate is able to drink these high calorie drinks. Hopefully he will be able to drink as many as necessary.

Please continue to pray for healing.  Healing for Nates kidneys and wounds.  Strength for each day again both spiritually and physically.

    We thank the Lord for showing His love in what u write every day. Thank you for keeping us posted through this blog, do know we read it every single day and it helps us (and I guess u 2) to put everything in perspective and then we see that He is in control everyday again. Keep faith and patience as this road will be long, but do know He will carry you as on eagle wings.
