Maverick is stable. He has now had one round of Chemo and one round of Radiation. Currently his liver has not shrunk in size and is not functioning correctly. He did finally poop which is wonderful since he has had no bowel sounds since surgery. They took him off of sedation a few days ago and yesterday took him off the ventilator. He was off for about an hour and didn't do well breathing on his own. He was unable to take any deep breaths. Because of that they reintubated him and thus had to resedate him. He is now basically on all the same drugs he was on right after surgery.
Megan did get to hold him yesterday which was wonderful. And she going to insist on holding him everyday even if it does take 30 min to get him out of his bed and all his cords organized. Please continue to pray. Pray that his liver would shrink and that it would start to function properly. Pray for peace and strenghth and comfort for Megan and Ryan. I can't even imagine how hard this is for them.

In other news WE ARE MOVING!!! I am soooo super excited. We signed a lease on an apartment. It's kinda weird and sad to be moving into an apt after owning a house for 10 years. But I don't really care. I am quickly learning that less is more. And any place where we can be a family again is a great place. Money and big houses and nice cars and name brand clothes and all that junk really doesn't matter. I have a wonderful husband and a beautiful son and as long as I am in the same place as them I am more happy than I can ever express.
