Susan says, "I feel so blessed and so overwhelmed. Everything is just wonderful."
We're going to be throwing a baby shower for the Langagers in January. If you'd like to participate in any way, please e-mail lori.todd@yahoo.com. We'll be putting together another group gift, so you'll have another opportunity to bless them in a BIG way.
Good News
David is up to 2 lbs. 15.8 oz. Nearly 3 lbs.! He gained half an ounce from yesterday.
His head circumference is down 1/2 cm, which is awesome.
His breaths per minute were turned down this morning to 40 before they did the blood gas test, and the results were slightly lower than yesterday. She doesn't know if they're going to leave them there since the doctor hadn't rounded at the time she called.
His O2 goes up and down, but it's at 41% right now.
He still had a positive stool test yesterday morning and this morning, which means there is still blood in his stool. Sometimes the HMF which is added to his milk can irritate his tummy (stomach lining) enough to cause some blood in his stool, but he needs the extra calories, so they're still giving it to him and monitoring it.
Prayer Requests
David still needs prayer for his head, lungs, and eyesight. Please pray that he will have no residual effects or long-term complications from being born early. Pray for steady growth and perfect health. Pray for John and Susan's health and strength, as well. They are AMAZING. They have such tremendous grace for this challenging season. I am so honored to be walking with them--to have the privilege of calling them "friends."
