Ben seemed to be doing very well today, so he came back to "live" in our room -but within 2 hours he was back in the NICU. I was nervous because the poor guy was breathing so quickly and "shallow" and his oxygen saturations were borderline again. Not being in the medical field, I wasn't sure how to handle it. Our wonderful nurse watched him closely and through great teamwork it was decided he would be better off with more one-on-one care tonight back in NICU. Hopefully he'll continue to strengthen and be back with us tomorrow.
So since I finally got to spend some time with Ben in NICU earlier in the day, Daryl was able to capture a few more photos for you.
We covet your prayers, as usual, and will post an update tomorrow!!!
Just love the photos. Caroline really does look ready. Ha! Sorry he had to go back to NICU. Our grandson Reece spent several days there before he could come out. They take really good care and give them lots of love. We went in and held him as I am sure you guys are and that helped all of us probably more than him. Just remember, this too shall pass. Soon you will all be home and back in a regular routine. Keeping you in our prayers. Elaine
