Thanks Robert for the post title! So, Maxwell is on his 3rd day of whole cow’s milk and he’s doing just fine. Below is a picture Robert took with his blackberry…sorry about the quality, I’m working with what I’ve got!
That picture was taken around 7am and I love how his little eyes are all squinty like he’s just not quite sure he wants to be fully awake yet!
I wish I could say that I’m doing fine too…but I am nowhere close to fine. I have infections and essentially poison spreading all over my body and, let me tell you, it is terrible, scary and beyond painful. To give you an idea of how sick I am, I didn’t even want Maxwell to come up and visit. I honestly don’t even have the energy to sit up and look at him. That makes me so sad. Luckily Robert didn’t listen to me though. Seeing this little boy’s face was just the boost I needed!
While I was initially hoping to go home today, it’s looking like that’s not going to happen until Wednesday or Thursday.
I’ll take any prayers I can get for the pain to subside, the infections to die, and my fever to go down. Much appreciated!
To all those that have called, emailed, sent flowers, etc… Thank you!!! It really means so much. I promise to get back to all of you when I have a little more energy.
More prayers coming right up.
You should receive the “Blogger of the Year” award for these posts. Amazing.
We are thinking of you. Hope your fever breaks so you can cuddle with a sleepy Maxwell at home and in your own bed.
Steph – I’m so sorry about what happened. I’ll surely be praying that you feel better soon.
Thanks so much Jennie. Good to hear from you. Congrats on your baby girl!
Coming out of hiding to send get well soon wishes!! Hang in there and hope you get well very soon!
You’re so sweet Grace! Thank you. Love hearing from you!!
Another day of prayers from your Arkansas crew.

dear Lord, deliver Steph!
We have been in awe over the fact that you can even contribute to the Brown Brick Road while you feel so badly! Know it’s been wonderful having both Susan and, especially, Jan with you! We are so glad you went on to B’ham – what a painful trip that must have been! You are a real trooper!!! Your little angel seems to be handling everything quite well, but I know he misses you terribly! Several of our Montg. friends have called to ask about you. We love you and are praying that you come home soon .
