This morning when we got to the hospital Benjamin looked better. The nurses and RTs noticed this as well. His belly was a little bigger, they are now measuring the changes. But it wasn't as red as yesterday. They did a repeat x-ray and there has been no change in his intestines. Which is good. It hasn't gotten worse. He has slowly been weaning from the oscillator. His numbers were great and he was doing well getting rid of his carbon dioxide and keeping his oxygen where it should be. His hemoglobin and platelates are still a little low...he may require more transfusions, but thats ok. The doctor seems to think we are past the most critical point now..Of coarse there are no guarentees, but we're praying he's on the mend. We're gonna keep praying, because thats all we can do.

little changes are good! I'm still praying for him!! ((hugs))
our prayers are sent as well Shannon, and if you ever need to talk, I've been through a lot of what you're dealing with now with Lily. She was not quite as early as Bejamin, but had some scares as well. Hope each day gets a little better for all of you .
