Carter's Journey: The Zoo!

Carter got another pass out today and we took him to the Zoo. My brother Josh and sister-in-law Morgan came up to visit last night, so they came with us. Carter had so much fun! The Cincinnati Zoo is huge and really nice. If you are ever in Cincinnati, I would highly recommend visiting the zoo.

We are still planning on going home Monday. Unfortunately, Carter's abscess has gotten worse and the culture ended up growing staph. They changed his antibiotics yesterday and we are hoping they will take care of it. Carter has lost a little weight, but he is still within the limits they gave him. He has also had another spot get infected in one of his incisions and last, but not least he has another hernia. The good news is they are still going to let us go home! We have to return in 3 weeks to make sure everything remains stable. We will also follow up with our surgeon, urologist and pediatrician when we get home. I think we will be very busy the next few weeks, but we will be home! We are so excited and can not wait to be a family again! Please pray that Carter will fight off the infection and for safe travels Monday. Carter and I will be flying home and my mom will be driving. Thank you all so much for your continued prayers!
