extremely sick

Posted in Noah Updates
Noah is very, very sick.  Nearly every lab is getting worse in very serious ways.  Stool continues to pour out of his g-tube.  We can't wake him up.  We are going to try to get an upper GI w/ follow through to see what is going on in his gut.  The doctors are extremely concerned.  This is unlike anything he has ever been through before. He needs prayer so much.

Oct. 23, 2009 - Kate, I am interceding for Noah right now

Posted by Carol from TX

I am SO SORRY to hear that he is so very sick and seems to be getting worse. My heart just aches for you. I will be praying and thinking of Noah all day today and believing God for a turn around. God loves Noah and your family very much and I KNOW HE HAS A PLAN. That is what He told me about my family situation right now, as well as to TRUST HIM, and I am trusting Him completely for it.

Much love to you, Kate, you are awarrior woman of God, don't forget it.

I am so very sorry that Noah is so sick!! It makes me so sad. I will be praying fervently that God will heal Noah through the doctors and he will begin to get better!!!!

I have sent you an email. Please read it if at all possible!!!

Kate and family,
I've never met you all, but your family touches my heart. I had 8 children, in much the same spacing as yours- my youngest now being 15, almost 16, and the oldest 28, almost 29.
Please know that your family is in my thought and prayers this day, and on many days. I know our Heavenly Father loves all His children, and I have been comforted to remember that He was their Shepherd before He put them in our care.
I hope you will feel His love and peace, as His will is done.
love, Sandy

Isaiah 53:5
But he [was] wounded for our transgressions, [he was] bruised for our iniquities: the chastisement of our peace [was] upon him; and with his stripes we are healed.

Joh 14:13
And whatsoever ye shall ask in my name, that will I do, that the Father may be glorified in the Son.

In the name of Jesus, Noah is healed and given a miracle. In the name of Jesus, all sickness and disease in Noah's body shall go, now, and not return.Through the power of the Holy Spirit, in the name of Jesus, healing and a miracle are commanded to manifest in Noah's body.

(Kate, place your hand on the arm of Noah and speak aloud all the above words.)

We are diligently praying for Noah that you will find out what is going on and that his intestines will function properly and all that is harmful in his system will be removed. Praying that his blood is clean and his levels are all balanced.
Praying that you will find rest and trust and that fear will not overtake you.

Praying for you dear sister, your family and little boy too.
James 5:15
The prayer offered with trust will heal the one who is ill - the Lord will restore his health; and if he has committed sins, he will be forgiven.

We will be praying for Noah, his doctors and caregivers, and for you and your dear family. May God hold you and Noah in His loving arms and surround you with His peace. My friend posted these words on her blog yesterday. I hope they bring you comfort.

I believe in the sun even when it is not shining,
And I believe in love even when there’s no one there.
And I believe in God even when He is silent,
I believe through any trial there is always a way.
But sometimes in this suff’ring and hopeless despair,
My heart cries for shelter, to know someone’s there.
But a voice rises within me saying hold on my child,
I’ll give you strength, I’ll give you hope,
Just stay a little while.
I believe in the sun even when it is not shining,
And I believe in love even when there’s no one there.
But I believe in God even when He is silent,
I believe through any trial there is always a way.
May there someday be sunshine,
May there someday be happiness,
May there someday be love,
May there someday be peace

((You are in our prayers here)) May you have an unimaginable PEACE as this medical puzzle is pieced together. Our family loves you, Noah and the rest of the Estes clan even though we have never met. We have been blessed by your grace and thankfulness in the most difficult of circumstances. It was an example to us when we had our own baby in the hospital. We sign PSALM 13 at our church and it comes to mind when I feel hopeless or desperate: "How long O Lord, will you forget me
How long O Lord, will you look the other way
How long O Lord, must I wrestle with my thoughts
And every day, have such sorrow in my heart
Look on me and answer, O God my Father
Bring light to my darkness, before they see me fall

But I trust, in your unfailing love,
yes my heart will rejoice.
Still I'll sing,
of your unfailing love,
You have been good,
you will be good, to me"

With much Love
