Update on Henley

Thank you all for your prayers for this precious family. God has heard them all and is so faithful to answer our prayers!!!

Baby Henley is off of the vent! They have her on the cpap and had to bump up her oxygen through the night, but had it back down to 21% Saturday morning! Please continue to pray that her lungs will get stronger and that any fractures in her ribs will heal and allow her to breathe easier! The doctors don't seem to think that there is any infection in her bowels but they're still taking every precaution and treating her as if she does. She hasn't started feeding yet and will wait on that until they know more from the reports on infection. It was mentioned that she may have to have some blood, and her nurse said it would more than likely help her feel better if she gets some. They are just watching her closely and making decisions based on the need at that moment! They are taking it hour by hour and trusting God that His grace is sufficient for TODAY!  Whitney will be discharged from the hospital today and she and Bryant will stay in Montgomery until Henley gets to come home! While we can't be sure exactly when that will be, we can trust that it will be in God's perfect timing.
Whitney posted on Facebook, "We can't thank everyone enough for the prayers, the calls, messages and offers to help- we are so grateful for God pouring out His blessings through His people! To GOD be the GLORY!!"

Candace Nelson, an amazing photographer (who just happens to be living in our old house), is a close friend of their family and was at the hospital to document Henley's birthday! Grab your tissues and check out those precious moments here.
