MRI For Luke

We have been busy on vacation seeing Ken's family in South Carolina and a quick trip to the beach! Luke is having a MRI tomorrow (Tuesday 6/05) to check for a brain malformation. We have to be there at 9:30 and the procedure should start around 11:30. He will put to sleep and intubated by anesthesia so please pray that all goes well. He has always done great being sedated (knock on wood!) but every time he goes under it is a risk. The MRI should last around an hour and then we will go to recovery. We will hang out there for just a little bit and should head home late afternoon. Please pray that he does well and whatever God's answers are will be revealed. I don't know if I want him to have the chiari malformation or not. I will be honest.. I am a little pessimistic about Luke and his tests. I get frustrated about not being able to have answers and whenever I get a little hope that something may be found, it turns out to be nothing. I am going into this test just asking that God will give us answers--even if it is that nothing is found. There are different roads to go down with each result--some harder than others but all with the same result of trying to get Luke to eat and drink and get rid of his feeding tube. Please pray for Luke that all goes well, for this tired and frustrated mom, and for his daddy too! Thanks!!

Here are a couple pictures from our trip (more to come/ click to make bigger!):
