Preparing to Return

...but hopefully just for the day this time. Gabe's sleep study is tomorrow, and his first appointment with developmental peds. It's actually a nap study and the results could have a huge impact on what happens next in our little saga. If the CO2 levels are worse (which I would think we would have noticed something dramatically different, so let's really hope not) then we will have to think a lot harder about the trach. Cold and flu season is right around the corner now (hard to believe fall is coming - especially when it has been 90+ degrees for over 24 days) but it is. Actually, it has been in our house. Justin's fever finally broke Saturday, having us heaving a sigh of relief. Unfortunately now he has the runs. Poor guy. He'll probably have to miss tomorrow now too. So far nobody else is showing signs of illness, so we are hoping that Justin was bad enough for all of us (he really had a rough week - I sat up with him for several hours one night b/c he really wanted to throw up, just couldn't). Anyway, we will leave between 5:30 and 6:00 AM tomorrow morning. Don't know when we will have any news, maybe something preliminary tomorrow when we meet with pulmonology here in Evansville.

Well, tomorrow is going to be a long day, so I am going to attempt to get some sleep. I'll try to update tomorrow evening, depending on how late we get home!

Josh, Peg and family,

We will pray that the sleep study goes well. It is so good to see the pictures of Gabriel and how much progress he has made in this past few weeks. What a DOLL!!!

We will be anxious to hear the news of the sleep study and will pray that God will bless you with Good news.

Thinking of you and wishing you & yours the best!

Love, Jenni
