Sorry its been so long

Feb 11-19th
Jonathan has/is doing excellent he is gaining he is now 6lbs 3ozs, he is still on cpap however it has been 1 week as of today(19th) at 5a.m with no bradys which means no bagging!!!!! He had an eye exam on the 12th and still immature which the docs say that usually if they have an eye problem we would see it by now so we hope and pray it stays that way! they have increased his milk over the last week and as of today he is up to 53 ccs every 3 hours this little guy can eat! The doctors were going to start weaning his cpap pressure down this week but he is doing really good and he is growing and his lungs and trachea are healing so they are just going to postpone it till this friday then they may start weaning him. Just today he is starting to throw tempertantrums he would fuss and we would give him his paci and he would fall asleep just to us pulling out his paci he would throw his little arms up and start crying this happened for 2 hours, he's fiesty! We also met his pediatrician today he seems really nice he actually came up to the hospital which the nurses say rarely happen so when we do go home we will have to see him the very next day!So Jonathan is doing good and we now pray that he continues to grow get stronger and come home!!

p.s
on a very sad note our favorite nurse kim will not be back for a couple weeks it has been very hard but I have been praying not only for Jonathan but also for Kim, she had a complication with her surgery and ended up in i.c.u she went home a day later however she is back in the hospital with a blood clot, so please when you pray for Jonathan tonight please include Kim she really is our angel!
