I have been right where you have been holding your child's hand as they are truly suffering and promising them that everything is going to be ok. It does make you feel guilty and you pray that they will forgive you some day.<br /><br />McKay is so lucky to have such an amazing mommy there to hold his hand through everything. He will forgive you and I am sure he already has. That is the beautiful thing about children how easy they are to forgive.<br /><br />Saying many, many, many prayers for that site to heal and for things to resolve themselves without the need for another chest tube.Stefeniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04278714232697499851noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5229708613675028752.post-61854473501988231802010-07-16T15:08:13.371-06:002010-07-16T15:08:13.371-06:00I wish the little cutie felt as good as he looks! ...I wish the little cutie felt as good as he looks!

Poor thing. What a dilema...needing the fluid to drain the first time so you are not back with effusion issues and wanting so badly for the tubes to be out so that you can move onto the next step in the healing process and see him feel so much more comfortable. We will just pray that you can all have today pass quickly with as little pain as possible!Allisonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10039717173641157974noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5229708613675028752.post-29206475447413591382010-07-16T10:26:07.694-06:002010-07-16T10:26:07.694-06:00I can't believe how different each and every o...I can't believe how different each and every one of our worlds are so filled with ups and downs...<br />Today is my grandson, Ashton's birthday,filled with such joy and fun...<br />My heart aches for your pain..will <br />send prayers you way..McKay is so beautiful...so strong...<br />It's ok to be a brat...we all have our turns..and then we suck it up and move on....Bless you.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5229708613675028752.post-91755113135977922952010-07-16T10:19:08.671-06:002010-07-16T10:19:08.671-06:00We will pray for no drainage, no tube!!

We'll be praying that there is NO more fluid and he will not have another tube placed. Not fun. We dealt with that for three weeks post Glenn... yucko.<br /><br />Prayers and Hugs of sympathy.

Keep faith, and it will pass. Soon enough you'll be wiped out at the end of each day, not from dealing with a cranky child and doctors, but because your little guy will have the energy of 10 children his age!!! I cannot keep up with Hannah most days now, and I look back at those hard three weeks, and I know that they were all worth it.<br /><br />Saying prayers and sending hugs!!<br /><br />God Bless,<br />SharonSharon Ghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13277412677933789786noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5229708613675028752.post-90589282586720076202010-07-15T22:18:19.959-06:002010-07-15T22:18:19.959-06:00Mindi, I know I've commented before, and I rea...Mindi, I know I've commented before, and I realize we don't know each other, but daily, my thoughts always seem to wander to you and that ever-so-sweet little boy. I pray that MacKay will continue to heal and progress quickly. I pray that you and your family will have the strength and courage to continue on this journey. You will be strong, because our Father in heaven picked you to be his mother. I will continue sending prayers your way.
