Day 45 of Life - August 2nd
I'm happy to report that it's been a slow news day for the little one! He's still on the Aladdin and is still adjusting, but each day gets better. When Ma and Pa left tonight, he was at approximately 50% oxygen and is still receiving 16 cc of breastmilk every 2 hours. His blood oxygen saturation levels seems to be stabilizing and he is desaturating less often.
Ma had a counselling session today. The good news is that she hasn't been institionalized...and she spent a lot of time crying in anger and the counsellor did comment that Ma seems like a very angry person...but that session is over. She has another one in a week, so we'll see how that one goes!
Last night, Ma received an early birthday present from Pa and Sha...an electronic keyboard. For those of you who don't know, Ma spent many many years in piano lessons and has missed playing. So, Pa, being an incredibly thoughtful and sweet person, bought Ma a keyboard and sheet music for lullabies, so that she can play for Sha when he comes home. (Although, now I believe that Pa might be regretting this purchase, since he says his favourite feature is the volume button!!!)

Hi Sha, Ma and Pa. I am so glad to hear that Pa bought you a keyboard, Ma! You will enjoy it so much. Just think, when you are really ticked off, nothing feels better than slamming down hard-core notes on the keyboard - very cathartic! As your previous piano buddy, I couldn't be happier. I'm glad to hear that little sweetie Sha is doing quite well. I just had to print the picture off with his eyes open. I love that picture. He is such a sweetie. As for the pay stuff, keep at them until they get it right, Ma. Don't let them weasle their way out of anything that you deserve. Take care of each other, and again, if you need anything, call me.
Love Auntie Kris
