Tuesday Morning -
Drew had a good day yesterday. He had had more residuals (undigested milk in his tummy) night before last so they tried a different approach to his feedings and it seemed to work. He digested all of his feeding at 5:00 pm and most of it at 8:00 pm. That was good news!

The bilirubin light will come off today and they won't recheck his levels for a couple of days. They said he is getting past the danger zone with that.

Also, his picline isn't cooperating yet. They tried repositioning it and it is still having a little difficulty getting in the correct position for them to use it. To us, it looks a lot more uncomfortable than an IV, but they say it isn't.

Dave and I both got to hold him for a long time, and his Marmee (my mom) got to hold him for the first time. He seems to like being held, but he is so tiny and fragile it is a little nerve-racking at times.

Dave flew back home yesterday with our landlord who is a pilot. He is going to try and get some things in order with work as well as bring back some of our clothes and things we will need over the next few weeks. He will drive back tonight or early tomorrow. Pray for him on the 5.5 hour drive back.

We appreciate you all...keep the notes coming. We love to hear from you!
