Last Saturday Theo was complaining of lots of pain. He is very tough so we listen when he complains. In the ER we found out he had Intestinal Intussuseption - his intestines slid up inside themselves. Two of our nurse friends have since declared, "That's a BIG deal." God did lots of kind things during this scary thing:
- He helped us know to take Theo in.
- He helped the doctor to know what was wrong, it was her first guess after examining him!
- He helped the nurses get the IV in. This was the scariest part for Theo's parents. We cried. It took 7 times and 4 nurses and lots of fears about the unknowns if it did go in and the unknowns if it didn't go in.
- He helped the Radiologist to do his job well and fix the problem without having to go into surgery. Theo's mama hugged him.
- He healed Theo's body and it hasn't come back as it sometimes likes to do.
Here is the happy baby after the successful procedure and nursing after 7 hours of crying and sleeping and not wanting to eat:
Here is that baby still happy the next day:
So thankful!
