Little Hands...

Last night Grandma Candy and Grandpa Joe made the trip up to see the boys. It was so fun to see them... it is every time! They are doing a little better. Baby steps, haha! Luke is off of the CPAP and is breathing well and Max is just on CPAP now with no aid really, just breathing on his own with the constant flow and is doing better. He is still having spells but they haven't been as frequent or severe so I pray he keeps getting better!!! Also, Max is off of antibiotics too. PRAISE GOD no infections!

Both are gaining weight, Max a little faster than Luke. Max is a little puffy too, just from some of the IV fluids so he looks extra chunky because of that. Both are eating really well and climbing slowly.

Max did get some x-rays done of his heart and chest to see if anything was wrong there to cause his spells. The doctor said that he has PDA... you can look it up... just means that he has a valve of his heart that is not closed (and wouldn't be at his age yet). The doctor is not worried about it at this point and is just going to watch it and see if it will close. Otherwise there is medication or surgery to close it... both with side effects. So we will see!

Max and I comparing hand size... I win!
