Please Continue to Pray...

So Emma officially has group B strep which is actually worse than the doctor was thinking it was gonna be but it is good that we know what it is, it's easier to treat. They decided to do a lumbar puncture today to see if it is in the spinal fluid which would not be so good and low and behold it is... We are looking at a 21 day course of antibiotics. She continues to be on the breathing machine, still to sick to breath on her own. They restarted her feedings. She still weighs 3lb 1oz. She has been more active and alert today which is very good!!! Please Please Please continue to pray for her! We have an even longer road ahead than we thought.

Lord, I thank you that You are all knowing and You know everything about Emma. You knew her before she was born but I come before You asking for widom and knowledge on behalf of the doctors to know how to treat Emma's condition. Lord, I lift up Robert and Amber that you give them strength and endurance. I also pray for rest and peace in their heart. In the name of Jesus may yor will be done in Emma and everyone connected to her. Amen

We will continue to pray for our sweet Emma and also for you and Bobby and all of the doctors and nurses who are taking care of her. Keep the faith and the lord will handle it from there. We love all of you.
