Today Benton has taken a very critical turn. His edema has been affecting his organs and the swelling is causing him lung, heart and kidney failure. He is currently at 100% oxygen and we are trying Nitrous Oxide treatment again to help him. The Nitrous is not yet working and though we remain hopeful and have faith in our little boy, the doctors are extremely worried about his outcome right now.
Please pray for our beautiful son, send him your love, positive thoughts, and healing energy so that he may keep on fighting. We believe that all your prayers have been monumental in his recovery and sincerely appreciate all the love and good thoughts you're sending his way.
It breaks my heart to read this post. Praying really hard for Benton's health to take a turn for the better. May God continue to hold you all in the palm of His hands and bring you peace.

ReplyDeleteI have been following your journey for the past month, I'm a friend of the Mallams family. What an intense roller coaster you all have been on, I couldn't ever imagine. Just wanted you to know that you have a lot of us here in Iowa that are holding you in our thoughts and prayers daily.
ReplyDeleteStill praying for all of you, Marika. Let us know what you need, when you are ready.
ReplyDeleteI have kept baby Benton in my prayers since he was born and will continue to do so.
ReplyDeleteI am lifting Baby Benton up in prayer, asking God the Father to hold him in His hands and heal his body.
