Today, they removed Megan's IV and she has been doing well, tolerating the formula on her G-tube. We pray the she continues to do well, keeping the prospect of IV feeds at bay. Also, the Lord willing, Megan and Stacy will get to come home tomorrow. Maybe late morning, or early afternoon. It just depends on when the doctor gets by to discharge her. Anyhow, that's about it for now. Thank you all SO MUCH for the thoughts and prayers as we continue to press on. She is not out of the woods, by any means, but she is showing how much of a strong child she is.

I heard a song the other day that caught my ear. It's called "If You Want Me To" by Ginny Owens. The lyrics are spot on, when it comes to going through trials.

 

If You Want Me To

 

The pathway is broken
And the signs are unclear
And I dont know the reason why you brought me here
But just because You love me the way that You do
I will go through the valley
If You want me to


Now I'm not who I was
When I took my first step
And I'm clinging to the promise
You're not through with me yet
So if all of these trials bring me closer to You
I will go through the fire
If You want me to

It may not be the way I would have chosen
When you lead me through a world that's not my own
But You never said it would be easy
You only said I'll never go alone

So when the whole world turns against me
And I'm all by myself
And I can't hear You answer my cries for help
I'll remember the suffering Your love put You through
And I will go through the valley
If You want me to

Ginny is an awesome girl. She use to live right behind me a few years ago so I got to know her a little. Prayers out to you and your family. Glad Megan is doing well so far.
