Update: Seth isn't doing well

Hi Folks. This is Seth's Aunt Laura. Vickie called and asked me to blog for her because of the most recent setback for Seth. She has mentioned several times that she was very concerned about Seth's ng tube, the pain that it is causing him as well as the output. The doctor told them earlier today that he believes the tube has caused an injury as a result of it bumping into the lining of his stomach. Well, now the output of the tube has doubled and it is all blood. The doctor hasn't been back yet and they aren't sure what is going to happen. Seth needs the ng tube to pump his stomach, but if it is causing bleeding they don't know what will happen. They are very distressed about this development and are asking for prayer specifically for this issue. Thanks, Everyone. Please pass the word as there doesn't seem to be much activity on the blog with surgery #2. They are feeling vulnerable and really need the back up. We'll keep you posted.
Laura

One more time we'll walk in line
And carry both Seth and Vickie home
The power of a pile of prayers
Stacks higher than heaven

Things will improve since we're all still pulling with you.

I think i speak for us all when I say that we wish we could do something materially for your needs! It really is a test of faith just to pray! We're here for you if there is anything I can do specifically, (lol besides calm cassie down) let me know, ok?

I am very upset to hear the latest news on Seth. It doesn't sound good at all. I am praying hard for Seth's stomach to heal!

Vicki and Seth,

I will keep praying. Keep vigilant in God's word and hold on tightly to His promises. God is in control and knows exactly what Seth (and you) need.

Please know that hearts full of prayer have been going up to Gods ear on your behalf... Thoughts of you consume our days. Wishing that we could be there with you physically, but our prayer surrounds you & fills the entire hopital to overflowing! I'm positive that there are more prayer warriors than bloggers...
Keep your eyes on Jesus, He will see you through!

Much Love,

Chip & Juli
