Monday Update

Nicholas’ Lung Function:  Okay so tomorrow we have a lung function test scheduled.  From talking to Jim today, (he’s the one who does the test) they are completely booked.  He has no idea when he will be able to get to Nick.  As soon as I know anything, I will let you guys know.  Pray for an increase so they will let us come home.

Nicholas’ cough:  His cough has gotten better, but it still sounds very wet.  Obviously, the breathing treatments are helping to break up more stuff, but they are breaking up more stuff, so this could make his lung function continue to be low. 

Nicholas’ weight:  His weight is up to 105.7!  They weighed him this afternoon.  Adding the fifth can of feeds is working.  His appetite is still blah.  The antibiotics work on your taste buds, causing you to not want to eat.  At least we are headed in the right direction. 

That’s it for now…

    Hey Robin,

    I’m not sure how I got hooked up with your blog (maybe from Dreama) but I look forward to your posts and keeping up with what is going on with you and Nicholas. I am always so happy when the hospital visit is over and you guys are on your way back home. This one will be over before you know it and you will move on with your summer.

    Nicholas has grown up so much since the last time I saw him (probably at Relay two years ago). He has the most gorgeous hair I have ever seen. I’m so jealous of his curls. (OOH YUCK Boys don’t like being told that stuff!)

    Anyway, I just wanted to let you know that I’m keeping up with you and that you are ALWAYS in my prayers. I was talking about you to my sister this weekend — so now you are in her prayers, too! I so admire your determination and positive spirit. It inspires me every day!

    Who does Nicholas pull for in NASCAR?? I hope his season is going well. I’m a Jeff Gordon fan and ours is NOT going so well, but at least we’re in the points chase!

    Love ya,
    Penney
