Day of Firsts


Today was the first day Mason got to wear clothes. His "suitemate" brother, Jaden had given him a onesie that he had grown out of and today when we got there, Mason was wearing it. He looked like a cutie and it made him look all "grown up". He had lost around 3 oz. and is down to about 3 lbs. and 5 oz. which is heading in the right direction. Mason continues to tolerate his feeds and is doing well on his vent settings. They decreased his rate to 15 and weaned his hydrocortisone some more. His platelets, after tranfusion yesterday were in the 80's. Hopefully he will start to make some of his own. They are continuing to consider extubating but didn't do it today. Please pray that this time it will be successful, whenever they decide to do it. His head continues to feel full so please pray that the duct will unclog itself. Today is the first time he started to look like a little baby again. Corbin came up and got to visit his baby brother for a little bit. Below is a picture of all of us together. Thank you for your continued prayers and support.
