Updates

Well Big boy Connor had his scope of his throat and everything was fine. They are going to treat him for reflux and try a different bottle nipple for him. This should make his feedings much easier. Connor is now OFF all his oxygen and because he is not attached to anything anymore he needed to be given one of the ankle bracelets so that no one can take him off the 3rd floor without alarms sounding. (sorry Dad no more dreams of putting him under your shirt and running away from the NICU)

Jackson is scheduled to have his bowel surgery on Friday. I should have an update Friday evening. If Jackson recovers well from his bowel surgery he will be having laser eye surgery to correct his retina and that is scheduled for Wednesday Sept. 5th. The laser surgery is not invasive but because of Jackson's age he will need to be put under using anesthetic, it is only about a 15 minute surgery. This little guy is such a fighter.
please keep this special little guy in your prayers .

Glad to hear that Connor is doing so well, and I will keep you all in my thoughts tomorrow as Jackson has his surgery.
I can't believe how 'big' these guys are, they are growing so fast...it won't be long now and you will be taking your boys home and the NICU will only be a memory! :)
Take care you two,
Luv Tracie
