Happy Labor Day Weekend!
I have several things to say, so this might get a little long.
First, an update on Elijah. He had to have another surgery to put in new chest drain tubes. The procedure went well, but then he had to go back in and have another one put in because they found more fluid in another spot. As soon as they got that one in, they drained a ton of fluid. They sent some of the fluid off for testing and it had bacteria in it. So now he's on 3 antibiotics to fight that and they told his parents he will have to go home on iv meds. Please pray for no more set backs for him.
Second, we found out this week that we make too much money to qualify for Medicaid. So once all the paperwork gets processed we will be loosing that and then we will start receiving bills for every drs appt that Damon and Myles have. Up to this point in Damon's life we haven't had to pay anything for his medical care, and we are so grateful for that. However, being a one income family, our money is tight and we really can't afford to pay any of the bills we are going to start receiving. Also, we got an update on one of our utilities and it has doubled so that's hurting us too. The bottom line is, we need some extra income to make it. But every idea we've had to get some has a road block in front of it. We really are trusting God to take care of this because frankly we have no other choice, and we know that He will. The other thing that would greatly help is if we could sell our car. That would free up some of our monthly income. So please be in prayer for us on this matter.
Third, in my efforts to be frugal, I gave Damon a hair cut today! Yikes! He did great though and his hair doesn't actually look that bad...at least not that I can see. And Myles is going camping tonight with Pa, and he's so excited. He's been doing really well at school and on the bus and brought home his first homework assignments on Friday! He's so grown up, tear! I hope you all have a great long weekend and be safe!
