As you may have guessed, Shaun and Denise are still at UVA.
They kept Shaun in the hospital because the doctors needed to change his feed duration (slowly) while monitoring his glucose and see how he tolerates everything. The new anticipated discharge date is Wednesday.
Shaun did well with his 6 hour feed last night so today they will bump him up to 8 hours. He has only thrown up once (as opposed to 10 times) which is also an improvement.
At home, Peter is scheduled to leave on a business trip on Wednesday morning and Scottie has the flu and bilateral ear infections. This is not the environment that the doctors want to send Shaun home to - but Denise really feels like she needs to get home if Shaun doesn't need to be in the hospital any longer.
Please pray for Scottie to get well soon, for Shaun to be protected from the flu virus that would be very detrimental to his health, and for Denise to find a balance in caring for her boys and that her rest would be multiplied that she would have the strength to carry on.
Stephanie, Thanks for keeping us informed about Sean and Denise at UVA. We continue to pray for breakthrough in his health and for sweet Denise. Now we are praying for Scottie too.
