Baby Blake

October 9, 2008

My nephew Blake, who is almost 8 weeks old, is currently in the PICU at St. Louis Children’s Hospital with unexplained respiratory issues.  He has been in the hospital (first Springfield and now St. Louis) for just over 3 weeks having various tests done to try to figure out what is happening.  His mom, my sis-in-law Amy, has been with him the entire time.  If you have a minute, please say a prayer for Blake, his mom and dad, his big brother Riley and the medical team working on his case. 

To read more about Blake’s story, go to the Caring Bridge site that Amy is maintaining.

The kids and I are making a care package to send to the hospital.  They have all made a get well card and we made cookies last night that we’re putting in the box along with kleenex (because hospital tissues is always so rough), lotion, microwave popcorn, a sudoku book and whatever else I can manage to find to lift Amy’s spirits.  Because they are so far away, we can’t do much besides pray.  I hope the care package brightens their day.
