Update Friday Aug 1st

Faith has improved in some ways, but still has issues with her kidneys. Yesterday a nephrologist was brought in to look at Faith. She is in renal failure. Her kidneys have not been functioning properly. She has started peeing more since midnight. That is encouraging. The doctor said she is still in renal failure but if she continues to pee he is hopeful she will get through this. In fact she has peed enough where he does not need to see her anymore. This has been a tough time for us as we could see she was very sick. She looks much better this morning. She even looked at me.

Ashleigh is hanging in there, but she is still intibated. They still have to suction a lot of secretions from her respiratory tract from the infection. She's eating and gaining weight.

Lots of scary terms flying around, but it sounds like you're also seeing some positive results to soothe your souls. Love to Parker and all the family. We're still praying in Clintonville!
