We just want to say a great big thank you to everyone for the many prayers that were prayed on Andrew behalf, the surgery went well and we got to go home the next day! They said that he would need to be monitored for 24 hours, but by Wednesday morning he was off of all monitors and out of PICU (pediatric intensive care unit) and by 5pm he was discharged.
The MRI on the other hand is a different story. Andrew`s Doctor called on Thursday and told us the lump in his neck has gotten bigger, so he is making an appointment for us to see a cancer care specialist as soon as possible. We do not know if it is cancer but we are hoping that this specialist will be able to tell us. The Doctor also told us that babies with 22 q deletion syndrome have a much higher risk of getting tumors so once again it looks like our little guy might be going through surgery, we don`t know why God is leading us down this road, or what lies at the end but we do know that we will trust Him no matter what, for He always knows whats best.
I also want to apologize for not posting sooner as I said I would, our truck got broken into and our laptop got stolen so therefore I have not gotten to this sooner, that is also the reason that this post has no pictures, I had no back up disks or flash drives so all our pictures are gone. But thanks to my sister and sister in law, blogging and scrapbooking we still have pictures to look at and now I will just get busy and take more!
Speaking of pictures Megan did Andrew`s 6 month photo shoot today (already)!! so I will be posting those pictures shortly.
Once again we want to say thank you for all the prayers, we really felt God`s presence with us and we know that no matter what happens He knows what is best and we know whom to trust!
O come let us sing unto the Lord, let us make a joyful noise unto the rock of our salvation.
Let us come before His presence with thanksgiving, and make a joyful noise unto Him with psalms.
For the Lord is a great God, and a great King above all gods. Psalm 95:1-3
Giving thanks always for all things unto God and the Father in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ. Ephesians 5:20
For the which cause I also suffer these things; nevertheless I am not ashamed; for I know whom I have believed and am persuaded that he is able to keep that which I have comitted unto Him against that day. 2 Timothy 1:12

Praying for you and your son.
I will pray also that the people that broke into your vehicle will have a sense of conviction and that you will receive back your items.
Praise God that Andrew did well with surgery.
Will continue to pray for you and your family. May you feel God's peace and presence.
