Well, it's been a few weeks now that Kaleb has been home and he is doing very well!
Tomorrow he will be 4 months old! Really???!!! Wow how time flies!
I have been learning so much about him, he is such a happy little guy. I thought that I knew him but I guess it is hard to get to know someone you only get to see every other day and then most of the time they are asleep and hooked to machines. We have our whole lives ahead of us and I am so looking forward to being his Mommy!
He has already been to a few Doctor appointments back at Riley Hosp. and we have gotten some good news and bad! Mostly good though!!!
Good News: Kaleb will be having his AV Canal defect fixed(open heart surgery) on Novembr 10th, at Riley Hosp. I will be taking him down on the 9th and getting him admitted and then spend the night with him in the Ronald McDonald House and his surgery will be in the morning on the 10th. Yeah, I can't leave him this time, I have hard enough time leaving him to go to the bathroom...hahaha!
Good News: He had a "sleep study" done on Tuesday the 23rd and the results from that were awesome, even though he really didn't sleep. We can now unplug him from the apnea monitor most of the time! He only needs plugged in over night and when riding in his car seat! woohoo!!!
Good News: Also we got to turn his oxygen down from 1 liter to 1/4 liter, yeah!
Good News: He is up to 10lb 9 oz as of todays weigh in with the Home Health Care Nurse, which also discharged him today from their services, she said he is doing great and they are not needing to see him anymore !
Bad News:( he has mild acid reflux and had to be put on another medicine to help control it, Prilosec!
Good News: The Prilosec worked!!
See only one Bad News!
I am so thankful for every second I get to spend with him, he is such a beautiful little boy and I am sure the Lord has big plans for him.
In His name,
Ginger
