Brady needs GoodThoughts
My new nephew Brady started having problems breathing this morning - as I noted in my last entry he was 5 weeks early and his lungs are a bit underdeveloped. He was struggling for breath and was wearing himself out, so a decision was made to intubate him to ease the burden on his lungs.
He was moved to Roanoke Community Hospital - which is the nearest NICU - with my brother and my family's pastor close behind him. Jessica, who hadn't slept since she went into labor, had to stay in Pulaski until she had slept some, but she and Alexis followed later this afternoon.
Ray, who at this point hadn't slept for almost 3 days (and they weren't easy days either), finally crashed at some point.
Right now only Jessica and Ray are allowed to see Brady, he's still intubated and will probably remain that way for the next couple of days, and is on IV nutrition. My Mom reports that he's "helping" the nurses with his IV line, and his blood results are good. We're all hopeful and confident he'll be ok.
Abba, please watch over him. Set Raygee and Jessica's minds and bodies at rest and let them begin to heal.
GoodThoughts and prayers from any faith (as well as hugs for an anxious (and distant) aunt) are very appreciated.
