The tests they took yesterday haven't grown any bacteria - so they're fairly sure there isn't an infection. However, some of her numbers are still coming back as abnormal, and they're trying to figure that out. Her body is using a lot of oxygen, and if there's no infection, they're unsure of that as well. She seems to still be doing okay with the new circuit, and her coloring is much better today. But overall, the longer she's on this artificial system, the more frequently these anomalies can happen. They continue to troubleshoot the best they can to keep her as stable as possible for as long as possible. Thanks for praying for Payton and praying for us, and please keep the doctors, nurses, and technicians in your prayers as they do the best they can for her. They have taken such good care of her, and we're so grateful to be here.
There's music in the lobby over lunch hour this week, and today, Payton's surgeon and our nurse's husband were playing in the jazz quartet. That was really fun to go listen to today. That's about all for now. much love, the Joneses

You don't know me - but we know Londa from Ft.Madison and are one of her supporters. She has been asking prayer for little Payton and just recently I received the e-mail that they have found a heart for little Payton. I will be praying for the doctors and for you as parents as you wait and rest on the Lord to undertake. As you can see we have something in common.
