Wednesday Night (06-10)




Kade is still fighting. Today I truly understand why they said were not out of the woods. He is still a very sick little boy. He has been fighting to keep his stats up today. The staff has been great it making sure to they try do whatever they can to make it happen as well. Kade has still not had any urine output all day. If things don''t improve over the night they may have to put him on a dialysis we should know more in the early morning.


Mommy got to go back to See Hanna tonight. We are hoping to bring her up to see Kade tomorrow. This will be the first time she has seen him since Monday night in Lincoln. They have a family service here that will talk to her and get a good understanding of what Kade is going through and prepare her to see him. Kade has a lot of tubes connected he has swollen up a lot and doesn't look much like himself at all.

While siting in the waiting area today a young boy whom I had never met before came and sat down next to me. He looked up and asked me how me "Hows your son doing?". I told him that he is working hard at getting better. We continued to talk about Kade and his big brother Tyler. He was very excited that his brother Tyler who was also in the ICU was able to take a drink for the first time today. It really made me think that the small steps are what we have to focus on. One small victory and one small Battle at a time.

"Be still in the presence of the Lord, and wait patiently for him to act." Psalms 37:7
