And He said unto me, "My grace is sufficient for thee: for my strength is made perfect in weakness. Most gladly therefore will I rather glory in my infirmities, that the power of Christ may rest upon me."
2 Corinthians 12:9

Pneumonia

"Lord, please protect our family. Please watch over our little one tonight while she sleeps. Please bring relief and healing to Critter."

This is our prayer this evening.  Critter, as you know from our earlier posts, got sick earlier in the week with Croup.  After getting better, she actually had a very rough night last night sleeping and probably only slept about 6 hours as opposed to usual 11 to 12 hours.  Her short night was due to being up coughing and not being able to breathe.  With such a rough night, we took her to an after hours clinic that sees patients on the weekends.  It was here that Critter was in fact diagnosed with pneumonia.  Her right lung is full with pneumonia and her left lung is showing some infiltrate...so very scary!  We are especially concerned as we don't fully know what to do as Critter has never really been sick.

In addition to the pneumonia difficulties, we are actually having an even tougher time getting her antibiotics down.  Any tips you have would be greatly appreciated as Critter wants nothing to do with her medicine and throws it all up if we force it.  HELP!!!

So please join us in praying for Critter's healing and that she will beat this pneumonia!  We are also praying that she will get some great rest this evening!

Thank you for your continued prayers on our behalf.  We're so thankful that we are back home from the hospital during all this.
