quick update

Kiki11 · August 2010

Thank you for the continued good thoughts for our little fighter. He's still doing just that- fighting. Every day is an enormous battle for him and he's just so exhausted. He's dealing with a lot of fluid in his lungs and complications from it. He's on a Hi Fi ventilator, which is a step backwards from the conventional vent he was on before. Every day brings new heartache, but we are just trying to take it hour by hour at this point. In some ways it is hard to believe he is already 11 days old and in other ways it feels like we've known him forever.

Hey Kiki - thanks for updating. I continue to think about and pray for you your and your family everyday. I am so happy to hear that he is still fighting. Tell him that there is a website full of ladies that love his mama and are praying for him too.

It's so nice to hear from you! I think about you and your little family all the time. Praying that "Rocky" keeps fighting and starts making good strides forward. Sending tons of (((((HUGS))))) your way.

Thanks for the update. Andrew was on the oscillator vent for about 7 or 8 days before moving to the conventional vent. It should be more gentle on his little lungs and hopefully will allow him to move forward. I'm sure you are exhausted, hang in there. You are strong just like Callum! Lots of thoughts and positive vibes coming your way.

(ps...saw your question on Preemies...I've found this website to be helpful for many of my questions/concerns - I haven't posted but done lots of searches - https://www.inspire.com/groups/preemie)

I don't know where in MA you are, but please let me know if there is absolutely anything I can do to help out.
