The Dr. just gave us the go!!! Yeah! Thank you all for your prayers. God Bless.

We want to thank you all for your prayers and words of encouragement. The Dr. came in this morning and was very happy with Kaleb's progress. He took Kaleb off oxygen in order to see how he does breathing on his own. So far so good! Kaleb seems to have more energy today and just looks much better. If all continues to go well we might be going home tomorrow. God is good! To answer some of your questions. We are in a hospital in Quito, it's suppose to be the best. It's been very nice and feels very clean so that's good.

Kaleb in Hospital

As many of you know our little Kaleb has been off-and-on sick for about seven months now. We brought him in to see the Dr yesterday because Kaleb once again got really bad with fevers reaching 104. He was also taking very short breaths and coughing until he threw up. To say the least we once again got very worried and brought him in. We were thinking the Dr. would just put him on another antibiotic, but that was not the case. After listening to Kalebs chest and reviewing his charts...seeing Kaleb has only gained two pounds in the last five months, he insisted we hospitalize him. Poor little man had to take a head x-ray, chest x-ray, and give lots of blood. It was terrible to watch him go through it all. His veins are incredibly hard to see, therefore they did all kinds of stuff to his little hands and arms to get blood and place the IV. Finally after a lot of crying and screaming they finished with him and we were able to bring him to a room.He has improved tremendously in the last 24 hrs. The Dr.'s main concern is his lack of Oxygen and will not send him home until he is able to breath well enough on his own. We would appreciate your prayers for our little guy. God has really blessed us with a great Dr. and we feel very confident in the hospital we are at. Thank you all for your love and prayers. We will have internet here at the hospital so we'll keep you posted on any further news. God Bless. The Reegers
