prayers for my son

Options
Hi everyone , I don't normally do this but ask for prayers for my son. As many of you know, my ten year old, Brandon, has recently been diagnosed with Chrohn's disease ..and has various trips to the ER. the last trip was last Monday where the Doctor's put him on Prednisone, Pentasa and Zantac to help his stomach pains. Unfortunately as the week progressed his symptoms got worse and we had to call his GI Dr. yesterday.. ..Who told us unfortunately the next step for him would be to admit him to the Children's hospital for further testings . Sooo here we are.. We got here at 8 pm..and admitted and in our room by 2am..sleeping till about 5:30 am... We are just a little sleep deprived but know Brandon is in good hands. And he is a real trooper too! Thank goodness for family able to watch my 6 yr old daughter at our home so that's one less thing we have to worry about! ( and of course..my diet and logging my food on MFP is just not happening right now) Please keep Brandon in prayer in hopes we can get this figured out and home soon! Thanks!
