Day 84 of Life - September 10th
Well, I just got off the phone with Ma for today's update. The little one has been weighed and bathed and is now wrapped securely in a blanket. He's lost a little more weight since last time, and now weighs 2375 g (5.236 lb).
He's had a fairly uneventful day...although they had to hold one of his feeds last night, as he had residuals in his stomach from the previous feed. This means that he hadn't fully digested his last meal. They don't think that this is anything really to be concerned about and he hasn't had a problem since and is back on feeds. (He'll be very happy about that one!!!)
His oxygen requirements are improving and he is desaturating less often, so the diuretics are really doing the trick. He'll be re-assessed tomorrow to see if he's ready to try oral feeds again.
Grandma Cush and Uncle Kabooblah were in for a visit today and Ma and Pa are there now. Good night, little Turkey, sleep well and grow strong!

yahoo little Sha regarding everything especially the eye surgery going so great (I was wondering about that).
Don't you worry Ma, soon enough you will be back in the country and the comfort of your own home with your little guy. (how much longer now??)
