Prayers for Jake

Even when sick Jake is always happy.
Leaving him last night was hard.  It took me three times of bye kisses before I lefted.  Trying to finish up things at home Gary stayed with Jake.
Last night it was hard sleeping without him at home.  I kept waking thinking I heard him calling my name.  One if Jake's favorite words momma and dada.
When I arrived at the hospital Jake was heading for his scope.  Once in recovery only to find out. He will be there another couple of nights.  Tonight we found out his GI Dr stated once again he is not be absorting calories and Jake is basically starving inside.  Jake has been on a feeding pump for years and enzymes have been changed repeatedly.   Some days Jake refuses to eat so he survives iff jis feeding tube feeds.
I love my son ❤.  These pass 6 years it has been filled with giggles and smiles.  But also meds, therapy, chest compressions and endless Dr visits
  I hate Cystic Fibrosis.  It robbed us of knowing his sister Gennie-beane.  But through Gennie we met her brother Jake.  I know our Lord is watching over our sweet Jake as he is holdimg. Gennie till we see her again.
  Praying Jake is released from the hospital before I travel.  We will be hiring a nurse while I am away.  And praying he does well so Gary can meet up with me to help bring Sophia and Damien-Greyson home. 
  Please pray for Jake to grow and gain his strength.  Also for the Dr to try and complete his scope to find out what is best for Jake.
  This has probably been the hardest of all mountains.  I place these worries in our Lord's hands.  May he heal our son.  Please again pray for our Jakey Snakey ❤

Full of emotions today

I am get back to blogging our journey this week and share some photos and our journey. Today I found myself missing our new little ones.  I wonder if they know we are coming back for the both of them.  Many tears as we walked out the door and said our goodbyes. This adoption has been a hard one for many reasons.  Updating documents and not knowing which child we were meant to adopt.  Honestly I just did not know what to expect once we were there. I knew this time deep inside I feel nervous and also excited.  With prior adoptions things felt so much differently than this one.  Maybe because this journey has been also a year in waiting. When we first met Barbara in hopped a little girl full of life and smiles.  As I watched her I noticed she was as nervous as I was.  But shortly we got to know one another.  I knew then inside as she sat across from us that this was our child, our daughter.. I felt inside love for a child I only met for...

One day closer to coming home

After arriving in Kiev we went right to bed.  Between moving quickly from one plane to another then a 30 minute ride to our hotel. With the time difference we had to rest once arriving.  Being up over 26 hours we were exhausted. Prior to leaving the US I had to visit my doctor.  Not any good news to share.  Only some complications had arrised.  Staying with Jake a week at the hospital and him checking out the day prior I had to have another check up myself.  Unfortunately my cancer has spread.  Problems now with blood pressure, thyroid disease and diabetes. Being placed on news meds prior to travel is not working out to well. It was awful arriving in Kiev sitting in a wheel chair.  Niko met us and drove us to get Greyson's birth records.  It was a 4 hour drive there n back   We waited 3 hours to have it printed. Greyson's birth Certificate So much left to do. Tomorrow we head to Mauripol.
