find time to peruse, howsabout some news?

Still thinking a good thought,
R and K

Thanks everyone for your kind thoughts:-)

The little guy is putting up a fight. He has had a couple of
occurrences of lung hemorrhaging- their little lungs are so
underdeveloped at this age its very difficult to balance the
ventilator against the babies blood pressure. They had one occurrence
Saturday and got it under control quickly- His Dr. said this happens
in one in 30 or so cases, Daniel's was relatively easy to correct.
Yesterday they gave him something to start closing up the hole in the
heart between the chambers ( natural occurrence I'm told- and they
generally close up naturally) the meds caused a drop in platelet
count, raised his blood pressure and hemorrhaged his lungs - so they
stopped the heart meds and fixed the lungs. The did a cranial
ultrasound and all looks well there- no signs of hemorrhage. The
nurse said its the start of a long roller coaster ride - good
days--bad days.

Here's hoping for more good than bad, John.
