Marcus update #10
















Hello again. Things with Marcus are going very well. Praise God. He is still home and still healthy. We even went to the Phoenix Zoo a couple of weeks ago.

Marcus is down to .1 on his oxygen and doing well. He has some follow-up doctor appointments coming up soon. He will have an echo cardiogram on the 25th here in Prescott. Hopefully we will see that the holes in Marcus's heart are getting smaller. I will try to let you know soon after the appointment.

He is scheduled with Pulmonology next Thursday in Phoenix. Marcus will have to have an MRI next month - April 23rd - and follow up with Neurology. For this he will have to be under general anesthesia.

Marcus is doing well but isn't gaining much weight even though he is eating well. So we started supplementing him a bit again with a bottle a few days ago. We will see if this is enough.

Please pray for Marcus that the holes will close in his heart, that he will stay healthy, that he won't need the oxygen soon, and that he will start gaining weight.
Thank you again for your prayers for our son and our family. We really appreciate it. God bless you all.
