Jacob Update

Jacob got home on Friday Auguat 20 and is doing really well. The miracle that happened is amazing to think about. He came through the surgery and originally the doctors were able to open up his pulmonary artery to 2mm, they were hoping for 4. A day later his lung collapsed and all blood flow was cut off. By the weekend the lung started to fill with air again and blood flow returned from other vessels. The pulmonary artery did not return to normal function. They are looking at going back in and hoping to open back up the artery in 2-3 months.

The doctors said it was a miracle that the lung came back. They were prepared to take the lung out. We know that miracle was the hand of God in His life.

Continue to pray for Jacob that God would help the Doctors know what to do and that his body would allow the pulmonary artery to work properly.
