November 1 Greetings from 4th floor at Sunrise Childrens Hospital. Caleb was promoted this afternoon to the pediatric floor. When the Drs made rounds today they said that they had done all they needed and would he like to go to the peds . He gave a very enthusiastic nod. Tomorrow he would have been in the hospital for 8 weeks. Unbelievable to see what the Lord did in that time. Caleb has improved so much. He
 is still on clear liquids and still struggling with nausea but things are looking up. Tomorrow starts some pretty intense physical, occupational and speech therapy so please pray that he will be strong and will succeed. On Tuesday, after Craig got here I was able to go to CA for a day and visit my family and see my wee nephew. He was cute as a bug in a rug. It was fun bonding with him and my sibloids and mom. Got to Las Vegas late last night and was able to visit with Craig for a little while until he had to leave at 4:30am to get back to Bullhead City this morning. Thank you all so much for praying. You don't know how much your prayers and encouraging notes mean to us.
November 2 and 3 - no updates.
November 4  Yes, I see that I have not written since Thursday and no we have not been abducted from the 4th floor. Caleb keeps improving daily and we are so grateful. He needs to overcome some obstacles like getting his strength back so he can walk, or retaining fluids in his stomach for longer periods so they can start giving him more than clear liquids or as his kidneys start to work better that he will be able to keep up. Craig and the girls came up Friday night and it was nice spending time with the fam. Then I came home with Esther for a few hours and did laundry, mail, etc. Esther put up some fall decorations in our house. She did a nice job. Then we had fun welcoming my brother Hovsep and wife Cathleen and little boy Eli to Bullhead City. Then went back to Vegas late Saturday and Craig and Esther went back. Today Jeanette and I bonded and spent time with Caleb. Then Craig came back with the girls, Grandmother Jean, and Caleb's buddy Eriq . Caleb had his PS3 game system and was able to get a game that had just come out through funds that the NHS at Mohave had sent him. They had also sent him some other fun stuff like a stuffed football that when turned inside out becomes a Cardinal. So thankful to the Lord for his provisions. For his unfailing love and mercy. His mercies are new every morning. Great is His faithfulness. Thank you all for encouraging us.
