Camdon Hopkins

I'm holding Camdon at Christmas Almost a month later, he's sick :-(

Chris' bother and sister in law had twins 3 months early and one passed away so they went to Plainview to be with them and for the funeral. The first day they were there Camdon got real sick and ended up stopping breathing. They rushed his to the ER and he was limp and blue. The nurses grabbed him and ran, his oxygen level was 2. Not good. We jumped in my car at 11:30 at night and flew out to Lubbock as fast as I could drive. We got there at 4:30 in the morning and got to go in and see Camdon. He looked better and seemed to be breathing OK as long as he didn't wake up and cry. So after being there for a while we headed to Chris adn Gina's hotel room and got a couple hours sleep. Chris brought Daylan and Kaleigh to the room and we hung out, packed all their stuff up and checked them out of the room since they wouldn't be needing it. Then we went to the hospital and they were doing the "surgery" to put him on the ventilator and the feeding tube. That took all day, once they could see him they went back and did that and Mom went back and prayed for him. Then we headed back home with the kiddos.

Today I got a call this morning and he wasn't breathing on his own at all. We were all worried but then this afternoon Brenda called and when they turned down the ventilator (or however that works) he took a breath but couldn't finish it. The doctors said that was VERY good news.

If you are a praying person please pray for my aunt and her family and even our extended family. We are all hopeful but still worried about little Camdon. I believe they said he was a month old today. So happy one month old birthday today.

We love Camdon and we are rooting for him. We know he will pull through our God is AWESOME. So many people are praying and we are so very thankful.
