David continues on the high flow oxygen through his nose today. He did well through the night. Today, he has been having some heart rate drops but recovering very fast and is not needing help to do it. His oxygen level has dropped a few times as well, but his oxygen requirement is still pretty low, which is good. Please pray that God would give him strength to continue to breathe on his own and that his heart rate would no longer drop. Thank you Lord for your provision!

The neurosurgeon was in today and took off some fluid from the reservoir. I wanted to give a little detail for people who were wondering about what a reservoir is. The neurosurgeon explained it to me this way... they place a tube into the brain (that doesn't seem to have any function) that comes to the surface of the scalp where they put a reservoir (disc-like object that can be punctured with a needle). They can access this as many times as they want to take off fluid without having to do anything major. This is a temporary fix as David is very small. When babies have grown a little more and if they continue to need the fluid removed, they put in a VP shunt which is permanent and drains into the stomach. Hope that helps!

Many of you have been asking about Anna. She is doing great! Grandma Laura and her spend their days here and there, around the Ronald McDonald house or at library story time. On Wednesdays, she spends the night with my parents/Aunt Ashley and gets to see her cousin Jaxson for some fun toddler play! Both families are such an amazing help, we couldn't do it without them. Here is a picture so you can see my sweet babydoll!
