Isaac is in the hospital again. He has been sick for the last three weeks on a off. He would have two good days and then the third day he would vomit and not eat much at all, then two good days and the third day bad again. We took him to his doctor this morning who had him admitted to run tests. Tomorrow (Tuesday) they will do a Gastrografin enema in order to determine what's going on. Right now they are calling it an Ileus. The enema will show if it is in fact an ileus which anyone can get from having a gastric virus and will correct itself. Or if there is some obstruction or if the section of intestine that is affected just doesn't work. Worst case, Isaac has surgery to remove that section of intestine. We won't know until tomorrow.
So on our way to Tulsa for his doctor appointment our van breaks down. The gas gauge has been acting up going up and down from E to F. When we left the house it said F but as we got further down the road it moved to E and then the van just quit altogether. So we but two gallons of gas in it and it still would not start.
Through all of this, God is still God. He is still almighty. He never changes, He never leaves us, He is always with us. Be praying for us that 1) the doctors will find the problem quickly, 2) the problem is minor and easily fixed, 3) for our family as we are separated with all our responsibilities, girls in school, dad working, mom with two little ones at the hospital, 4) pray especially for mom as this wears on her physically, not getting good rest, and emotionally, watching her son go through this again and not knowing yet what exactly is going on.
