Prayers for Micah

No pictures this time, just a request for prayer. Micah is in the hospital tonight. He was admitted about an hour ago for what they think is MRSA. At the very least they're classifying it as an infection/inflammation. It's in his right hand, and we noticed for the first time this morning that it was swollen and reddish. This is probably the reason that he's been fussy and unable to sleep through the night for the past week, and been cranky all day. So our poor baby has one hand that has an infection (the hand which has the thumb that he sucks) while his other hand is stabilized with an IV and lots of gauze and tape. He's feverish and pretty miserable in general. Even though it's killing me not to be there, Tim's spending the night with Micah tonight. I was up with him a lot last night and Tim and I agreed that I needed to try to get some decent sleep tonight. So I'm off to sleep as soon as I finish typing this note. Please pray for Micah that everything will turn out okay and for his parents, who learned firsthand how difficult it is to watch their baby suffer and not be able to do anything about it. I'll update everyone as soon as we know for sure what's going on. Thanks from all of us in advance.
