news story link and today's update

Today was a little discouraging for Preston and Elizabeth. Carson's G-tube began to leak considerably again. Therefore, Dr. Kavi is talking to Dr. Yang, the main pediatric surgeon, about revising the G-tube. Essentially, this means removing the one he has now and putting it in another location. Carson will have to go back to the ventilator for surgery and then begin the slow process of weaning back to his trach collar again. Just be praying for direction.

We all want to do whatever we need to do so Carson can grow and thrive. However, if he has to have surgery, it will require a longer stay in the hospital. The emotional ups and downs of having a child in the hospital are very difficult, so please keep Preston and Elizabeth in your prayers for continued strength, peace, and patience (patience always seems to be a lesson we get to learn over and over again).

Here is the link to the news story on the Clark family if you have already not seen it:
