### Gideon update

Gideon is doing well--as well as can be expected, given all his doctors appointments today. He is one tired boy tonight, and so are his mommy and daddy. But he is doing well--although his head does continue to increase in size, which indicates that he will probably be having shunt surgery sooner rather than later (or never). But we aren't in a panic over it, because we know what to look for, and because his skull bones aren't fused together yet (like all babies), the risk of brain damage from the fluid pressure is much lower. So we feel much calmer about everything.
Samuel and Caren, thanks for coming over tonight. We really miss you, and we really love our chocolate fountain! I feel so posh now!
David and Amy and family--our prayers are with you. We love you so much. Get well soon, Amy!
