Allergies

Michelle talked with Ben's Doctor early this week and the Doctor thinks Ben's symptoms are from allergies and not an infection at this point. He is still congested with sneezing and some coughing. They started him on Kid's Claritin and that seems to be helping. Ben will start TOBI this coming Wednesday, so if there is anything deep in his lungs, the TOBI should take care of it. Please pray for strength and patience for Ben and Paul & Michelle as they start TOBI. It is difficult to add the twice a day treatment on top of his other therapy and nebs.

Continued Prayer. . .

Thank you for your prayers. Ben is such a sweet boy! He is always full of questions, very mischievous, loves to be with Ty and Ben, and is so into dinosaurs. We thank the Lord for making Ben "fearfully and wonderfully made". "My frame was not hidden from you when I was made in the secret place. When I was woven together in the depths of the earth, Your eyes saw my unformed body. All the days ordained for me were written in Your book before one of them came to be." Psalm 139:15-16
We thank the Lord for being a big and powerful God who loves Ben more than we can fathom.

Ben has had an increase of cough the past couple days which is an indication that he may have another lung infection. He is not due to go back on TOBI for another 2 weeks, so we are really hoping that Ben doesn't have to go on another antibiotic right now. Please pray for health in Ben's lungs. We trust in the one true God who is able to do all things. We ask of Him to do a mighty work in Ben's body and to give Ben complete health.
