I just talked to Matt and the news just keeps getting better!! He said he was in to see Wendy with Joey and Bethanie, our worship leaders from church. The doctors were making rounds and updated Matt on the next steps, as well as the Ob/gyn doctors came out to see Matt in the waiting room. With the ICU and ob docs, the news came out pretty exciting. They are pleased with kidney and liver functioning. They did have to insert a sponge drain into her abdomen, but that was expected. The sponge is in to help soak up things after they saw some oozing from her incision…no big deal. He said they have been able to take her off the antibiotics as she appears to be out of the risk for pneumonia. The big news is that they are continuing to wean the vent and will begin waking her up (I think he said tomorrow). He was excited to say they also mentioned that “IF WENDY IS A GOOD GIRL, WE WILL TRY TAKING THE TUBE OUT TOMORROW”!!!!!!!!!!! Well, Im hoping that she will be on her best behavior so that she is one step closer to getting to lay eyes on her AMAZING husband and ANXIOUSLY AWAITING girls!! Lets pray for a good night of rest and that GOD will direct the hands and decisions of the doctors so that they can continue the awesome care they have provided to this point.
I will update more as I know…Have a good night!!

Thanks so much for the updates! Wendy is such a fighter! I'm so proud of Matt and the entire family for their strength right now. I'm sure Wendy is too!
Glad to hear that she is getting better. Every day she's taking one more step. God is going to use this experience in her life to do GREAT THINGS! I can't wait to see what He has in store for Wendy, Matt, and the girls.
