Update on Bracey

I had to share the latest about Bracey with you all. Please pray for them, I cannot even begin to imagine what this type of situation would be like. Thank the Lord Torrey knows CPR -

"Dear Family and Friends,
We come to you asking for special prayer for Bracey and for us. Early this morning, around 3:30am, Bracey was eating. During this feed he was very wheezy (not too uncommon), however he started gasping for more than usual. We tried to calm him down but could tell right away that he could not get any oxygen. He then turned blue and became very limp and unresponsive. We tried to stimulate him, but it was not working. Angela immediately called 911 and Torrey began giving him CPR. This lasted for a good two minutes. He let out a little whimper but then stopped again. Torrey continued to give him breaths while stimulating him. After another minute, Bracey began to cry. It was so good to hear him crying. The police and EMT arrived very quickly and continued giving him oxygen. After 15 minutes of that, Bracey seemed to be doing much better. He is sleeping now and seems to be very peaceful.

It is hard because most people have not heard of Vater Association or trachea malacia and so they do not fully understand or know how to treat him. This gives us even greater responsibility than we sometimes think. We will be contacting his surgeon first thing in the morning.

Please pray that God will continue to have His hand on Bracey and his doctors.

In His hands,

Torrey, Angela and Bracey"
