Update #16 on Matt's Brother, Kevin - Slow Day

This has been somewhat of a slow day. Emotions are high in the family, which also brings its challenges. Kevin has had some extra movement today. A few times when he has coughed today, it’s not only his chest that moves when he coughs, but down his body into his legs. A couple times it was only his left leg, then later it was both legs shaking when he coughed at the same time. In the past only his chest and head would move when he coughed.


Then at another point, the nurse was changing his feeding tube out. Her fingers got too close and Kevin’s mouth clamped down. He bit her! She had teeth marks afterwards. They said the coughing and the biting were reflexes. Not sure what it means. His stomach has been having some trouble digesting, but he did have a good B.M. this morning.

Most of the family worshipped together this morning at Highland Park Christian Church in Tulsa, Oklahoma. Then brought lunch up afterwards to eat together. We are starting to feel like we are being stretched to our limits. Pray for our family to continue to rest, pray, trust God and love one another.

Thanks for praying for Kevin,
Matt & Angie
