Ella Update as of Saturday 10:30 a.m.....
Ella seems to be fighting even harder. She has been without a seizer since 6:00 p.m. yesterday, praise GOD. The doctors have lowered one of her antibiotics as she has received plenty of that one in her little body. A normal babies heart rate is 90-100 bpm and Ella's has gone from 170 bpm to 120 bpm, again praise GOD. The doctors have told Joe and Andrea she is still VERY critical and although we have some good news and much more hope we are not out of the woods just yet. She is still critical and critical with a life threatening disease. We all know it is going to take a lot more time to get her well enough to go home. She is a little fighter and this just shows the power of prayer is working. Andrea, Joe, and Ella ask that you please not give up on praying just yet as she needs this strong prayer in her corner. God has his grip around her and we need to continue to ask him for help and praise him for what he is already doing. We will be taking an hour of silence and prayer time this evening at 6:00 p.m., to thank God for what he has already blessed us with and to let him know we give him all of the glory. Please feel free at any point in that hour to join in. We will be doing this from across the country and across the world from our homes, work , and even stopping in our busy lives wherever we may be. Thank you again for all of the support you have shown our family- Sara

Praise Jesus! Little Ella is quite the strong one! I bet she also feels the power of our prayers and those from Heaven. The prayers continue.

i was so glad to see the return of andrea's beautiful smile....i know you are cautiously hopeful! joe, i don't know you but i have heard that you have been AWESOME - talking to ella with tenderness and love and comforting and supporting andrea. wow! andrea is so lucky to have such a Godly husband with strength and compassion to deal with this crisis. i know you are supporting each other and i know you have your families close by. i am praying for all of you as well as the doctors. can i say it enough? i'm sure i'm not the only one who rushes to your blog many times a day to read updates. your Christ-centered marriage is truly a gift to ella and other children you may have. I pray that God will continue to work His miracles. just know that hundreds of people are praying for you, ceaselessly as the keeters said. Joshua 1:9 Duet 31:8 LOVE, jan m
Andrea & Joe,
Just wanted to let you know that I am still praying for Ella and will join you at 6:00 p.m. tonight to lift her up in prayer. Praise God for the healing that is already happening!
Love, Lisa
Prayers on the way for Ella and for mom and dad. Praying that God holds you all close and strengthens you while He heals that beautiful baby girl.
I am a coworker of Roger's and I have been praying so much for you and Baby Ella for several days. I am living proof that God will protect your children. There is a verse in Matthew, and I apologize for not knowing the chapter and verse, but it goes something lik this..."Come to me all ye that are carrying heavy burdens and I will give you strength." It's one of my favorites and one that I draw on. Much prayers and love being sent your direction.
