Light at the End of the Tunnel


The latest word is Wednesday. Wednesday is the day, we hope, when Greyson will be pronounced well enough to come home and his parents responsible enough to handle it. Seriously, I'm some one's dad... take a moment to let that set in.

Whew! Anyway, Greyson is getting better at breast feeding. Tomorrow Trish will spend the entire day at the hospital with boobs standing by for whenever he shows a hint of being hungry. I'll be at home watching TV.

I've been learning how to bottle feed the kid without sending him into an oxygen desaturation tail spin. When he comes home, we'll have no fancy baby monitors to tell us that he's not transferring oxygen from his lungs to his blood stream efficiently or that he has forgotten to beat his heart fast enough. Dramatics aside, I think he is ready to come home. I just want to be sure we are ready for it.

Lot's of folks have asked to visit, we'll get there. I promise. Even more have sent email with encouraging words. All are tremendously appreciated, we love you all. He'll be ready for visits in no time.

Oh, still working on getting some pix on-line... soon.

  1. You guys have certainly been through the fire, and deserve a lot of credit. We hope all goes well as Greyson goes through a second birthing process, from the hospital to home.
