Prayers for Tito

Well, sorry it has been so long. Life sure gets busy with a baby. It's hard to find time to blog since all I want to do is hold him and cuddle. But I'm going to try and get back on track with more regular blog entries. Today I'll update you on the past two weeks.

Tito had open heart surgery two weeks ago. It was a quintuple bypass. He's doing much better now although he's very weak and has lost quite a bit of weight. He's super strong though and is fighting hard. He had to be admitted at the hospital again over the weekend when he started having some chest pains and shortness of breath. But after staying the weekend at the hospital, he's back home now. We all got a good scare but everything seems to be okay. They're not completely sure what the pains were in his chest but they think it is just related to the surgery and not a heart attack or anything more serious.

One good thing to come from Tito being in the hospital is that our family got to spend lots of time together while in the waiting room at the hospital. In fact, my uncles were all in town to visit Tito so Jarem got lots of time with his great uncles. It was fun to see all the boys together.

Please keep Tito and Tita in your prayers. We're praying for strength for both of them and faith in God's plan. We're all hoping that once Tito is fully recovered from his surgery he'll be able to be more active and have a renewed energy. Tita takes great care of Tito and it's becoming a full time job lately. We pray for patience for her and strength of mind and spirit. They're an amazing couple and will only be stronger in the end. We love you, Tito!
