Please Continue Praying for Eli

Eli is on his way to the Children's Medical Center here in town. Apparently yesterday's antibiotics aren't doing the trick, and they aren't sure what he has. His doctor (who is wonderful and Leah's pediatrician, too) is thinking right now that he has a cyst somewhere between his belly button and his bladder. When Eli's bladder is full, the cyst would drain outward; when empty, the cyst drains into his bladder. If this is what it is, he will have to have emergency surgery. They're going to see if they can do an MRI to diagnose it, either way.

The little man is just a month old......he shouldn't be going through this.......
