Boys and Boobs.....of course

June 27 10:30
,The boys are officially on the boob!!!! Okay well not really on the boob, but they are both starting on a teeny tiny little bitty amount of breast milk today........yes!!!....you guessed it.......you're so good.......them starting on breast means that the heart condition is resolved!!!! Even though they both only had two of the three doses of medication, they BOTH responded extremely well and the heart closed!! The heart closure also means that their blood gasses are very good and they have both been lowered to the lowest setting on the new respirator. They have also both been taken off of anti-biotics (they both went on as a standard procedure) a little bit early. Parker has had enough of the sun lamp, but Tyler is still wanting a little darker tan, so he'll be on his for a little while longer. This visit was a good visit.....a really good visit. We understand that there is a long road ahead and there is bound to be lots of setbacks, but right now things are looking very good. This is exactly what we needed. Leaving the hospital today without the boys has been tearing us both apart. This news will definately help to make today a little bit easier.

So i started with the boys instead of Heather this time.....so now onto my beautiful wife: Heather continues to pump milk and bank liquid gold in the NICU. Her stiches come out this morning and we prepare to go home, which is both happy and sad. Happy to know that she is healing well and is tolerating the pain, yet sad to know we go home empty handed. Oh the roller coaster that become our life......."Jane!!! Get me off this crazy thing!!!!!" A little George Jetson quote for ya.
