Today has been a good day for us. Johnny was awake for most of the day. He and I spent the day snuggling, playing with toys, singing songs, doing leg stretches and massages, reading books and sleeping (him, not me). I love these kinds of days. :)
The latest update is that he is having a "hard bronch" and possible something-plasty (can't remember the name but it's where they trim some of the soft cartilage by his larynx) tomorrow. The ENTs are going to put a camera down his throat and see what's going on with his larynx and vocal chords. They are doing this because he has a stridor (raspy breathing) and after doing a shallow study (they watch him eat using an x-ray machine to see where the milk is going) they found that Johnny aspriates (inhales) milk while he eats. The ENTs think doing the procedure will help his breathing, eating and oxygen sats. Pray that it will cure it! I think it will make a huge difference.
The only other news is that he is now 4 lbs. 9 oz.! Exactly 2 pounds bigger than his birth weight!
