Nate

Wes Oxford 6:20pm Jan 25
Hello everyone, we are still in the hospital here at Dallas Children's in the ICU. We were hoping this would be peaceful and quick but lots of things have gone on that have made it difficult to get home. Nate's seizures had started back and he would have some lasting as long as two hours at a time. They finally got those to stop late yesterday afternoon. He is asleep and not responding, but his hands and feet jerk back if pulled. His breathing is very heavy and sounds loud and raspy. Since it is not tumor that is coating his brain it is not the tumor shutting down the brain but actually his brain is dying off slowly and making less and less things work. It is very hard to watch because you want him to just jump up and dance on the bed and be healed because he is still here, but you know this is not good with these seizures, slow brain death, the breathing, etc. The prayer is be healed or just to be settled down and pass peacefully. We want this to be as comfortable as possible for him...get rest Nate. We would love for you to stay with us..we so much would love that...but it looks like this is your time to go be with Jesus so please God let him have peace...please God help him and wrap your arms around him for eternity.
