Pneumonia?

Sweet boy,

You are not having a good day today. Your oxygen needs have gone up, yet again. You are at 80% (down from 88% this morning.) The doctors are concerned you have pneumonia so we are waiting for your cultures to come back. Your x-ray showed lots of fluid on your lungs. Just to be safe they started you on antibiotics to make sure you don't get sicker.

It hurts seeing you needing more help to breathe. We know God will heal you, just waiting patiently for the time to come.

Here's your picture I received this morning from nurse Holly. She didn't want me to worry to much about you. But that's what moms do. They worry themselves sick seeing their babies ill.

We love you sweet boy. Get better fast!

Xoxo,
Mom

P.s. you are over 4lbs! Wow! :-)

  2. Thank you so much for posting all of this. We are praying you for you guys daily. Also my husband was a preemie. He was 2lbs 4oz and was 3 months early. His mom kept a journal of his days in the hospital. It really meant something special to him when we read that. Erza will someday enjoy reading the ups and downs that you all had to go thru and He will see that God is amazing!
