But he had to be hospitalized for dehydration due to a stomach virus he has been fighting the last several days.
Kelly will probably be better at giving all the details that lead up to being admitted but what started everything was a little constipation and not being able to keep down fluids - see previous post!
From what we can tell at this point it seems as though he has moved past the virus since he had no diarrhea or vomiting today. But what has lead to a second night in the hospital is that Tate doesn't seem at all interested in drinking fluids of any kind. So, until he does, we'll be hanging out at Cook's!
Again, he'll be fine - but the three of us can use your prayers! Kelly had to go through everything yesterday on her own as I was stuck at a conference in Philadelphia. But thanks to a 6 AM flight this morning, I'm back at home now. I'm taking the night shift tonight so she can go home and get a good night's rest.
Hopefully the morning will bring the fun-lovin', milk chuggin' Tate we all miss so much. If that's the case then I'm sure we'll be home soon!
Here's a pic I took of Tate during one of his calmer moments today . . .
Please pray for more moments like these . . . especially tonight!

Absolutely, we'll be praying! We've spent too many days at Cook ourselves, and while we know it's the best place for getting kids well, there's no place like home!
Prayers for you and Kelly, too!
praying!!!
Oh no! My heart is breaking for you guys. Little Jon went through rotavirus and was in the hospital for a few days just like that. It was so sad and heart wrenching. :o(
I'm sure they'll tell you this...and I'm all about unsolicitated advice ;o) but the BRAT (bananas rice applesauce toast)diet is what they told us to stick to after his tummy was so weak.
We'll be praying for you all! Keep us updated...
Will be praying Wade. I hope you guys are able to get on the road to picture perfect health soon.
Father, thank you for your power and blessings. I pray today for little Tate and his health. Father, bless him to feel better and get well. Grant peace and comfort to Wade and Kelly as they wait by his side. Thank you Father for your goodness. In Jesus' name we ask this request. Amen
WE will be praying!
