Ok - you can stop praying now - Titus has poo'd.
And poo'd.
And poo'd some more.
In fact, last night, around 3 in the morning, it took over an hour to clean up all the poo. Becky stated they even were using the suction machine to clean it all up since it was EVERYWHERE. My little one had definitely been storing it all up!
Yesterday, we took up his bouncy seat, therapy chair, and other toys to see if it might help calm him when he was awake. I left at 8pm, but Becky called me around 9:30pm to let me know they had put him in his bouncy seat, and he was so happy. He was playing and acting like his regular self.
She stated this morning that he had a good night - They have been weaning him off of the pain meds and switching to methadone (little baby rehab all over again). But, they MAY try to extubate him off the ventilator today. And that is our major prayer request for the day.
Dad is back in a room on the 5th floor of Parkland. It looks like he did some damage to the healing of his pelvis when he pulled the pin out - so they will do surgery tomorrow (Friday) to repair. Mom didn't leave Parkland till midnight. She is exhausted. And with the freezing fog this morning, she wasn't driving down till later this morning. Please continue to keep them in your prayers.
I'll update more later today once we know if he's off the ventilator!

Ask & ye shall receive! God is gracious in ways we don't even begin to understand. A Huge part of Titus' joy today mostly has to do with the fact that his tummy doesn't hurt & he's not bloated like a ballon. Be grateful for things like gloves, masks, wipes & suction machines. Most of all...somebody else's sheets. However, they may just have to burn those! :) Seriously, that is a huge step for you guys. & I am grateful the Lord hears ALL our prayers...even ones for poo.
Never thought I'd cheer for Poo, but Yeah!! Good job, Titus!!!
We're praying for your Dad too and all of you!!
Love you guys!
