Our Blessing Named Jesse

Jesse Quintin was born September 26, 2007, the much-loved fifth son of Kristan and Chad. He was diagnosed shortly after birth with AV Canal Heart Defect and Down Syndrome. Thursday, January 10th, Jesse had surgery to repair his heart defect. Friday morning he suddenly went into cardiac arrest. After 45 min. of CPR he was attached to life support. By God's healing hand his heart started to beat again and he came off life support on January 13. We created this blog to keep everyone updated.

Tuesday, February 12

Jesse's chest x-ray was great today. Last night Jesse's heart rate was fast, his oxygen was lower and he had a low fever, but tonight he is back to normal and his oxygen is great! They did blood tests that did not show any infection, and checked his potassium which was perfect. They cut back his Lasix to twice/day. So we will have a chest x-ray in the morning and will go home either tomorrow or Thursday if all continues well.

Love,
Kristan

    Psalm 48:9-10 We have thought of thy lovingkindness, O God, in the midst of thy temple. According to thy name, O God, so is thy praise unto the ends of the earth: thy right hand is full of righteousness.

    We continue to praise the Lord for holding you and Jesse in His righteous right hand! We are overjoyed at the good news, and continue to pray that all will go well tonight.
    It will be sooooooo wonderful to have you home!
    love, Twila
