For those who haven't been able to see little Blake in his hospital room, I just wanted to post up a couple pictures of the little guy. And for those who haven't heard why he's there, here's a quick rundown. Blake caught a cold from Brooklynn last week and with an infant, that's all that's needed to land them in the hospital. Sunday night he was really congested and struggling to breathe. We were pretty concerned at that point so we decided to take him into the emergency room. While there we found out that he had the RSV virus and one of his lungs was barely functioning. He was also very dehydrated. We were transported to another hospital and put into the ICU area. He's been getting oxygen to help him breathe at 100% and they've been monitoring him very closely and continuing to help him get all the congestion out of his system. They also gave him plenty of fluids through an IV to help the dehydration. He's doing really well and his appetite has returned. We hopefully won't be in the hospital too many more days. We are so overwhelmed with everyone's prayers and all the love that Blake has received. We will continue to covet more prayers and keep you updated on little Blake's adventure.

It is so hard to look at the pictures of precious little there in the hospital. He looks so tiny and helpless. We miss him so. Praying all the time that he will be healthy and home. mimi and papa
Joy & Rich,
I had just heard about little Blake through friends and family yesterday. It gave the rest of us a scare so I can only imagine some of the anxiety in your household. However, you are all in our prayers!
Love you guys,

Sorry to hear about Blake. He looks so little in the hospital bed. Think of you all.

Just wondering how Blake was doing. We're continuing to pray for him!
