Today was a GREAT DAY!!! ^_^ It started off a bit interesting, though. I walked into his room this morning and looked at him… he was content for the most part, yet starting to grow fussy. Hungry a little? But as I looked at him again I realized that his NG tube (for feeding) was [...]

I wanted to add to what the daddy wrote earlier. Pain Meds: Neylan’s pain meds have been greatly decreased. Because the could not get use of an IV on him (because they took out the central line fearing possible infection), they had to change his meds again. When he was in the PICU they had [...]

I apologize for the long time it has taken to update everyone on Neylan’s status. It has been a crazy week, and both the mommy and I spent so much of our energy fighting with some of the nurses that we were too tired to write updates. Why were we fighting with nurses? I got [...]

Today may just be one of the best days ever! The nurse and Physical therapist have talked to the lactation consultant and they are trying to see what we can do so that I can breast feed my baby boy! I am very excited about this! He is continually being weaned off the fentinyl and [...]

The Daddy and I are in the hospital right now with our little one. He has had quite the day, although he doesn’t know it. They have changed up his meds again and I am thankful that Gramma Marshall was here to take down all the information about it. I can’t keep track of everything… [...]

Neylan was moved to the PICU last night. Now Neylan has his own room, with a bed for mommy. We can now stay with Neylan 24/7. It also means we can now turn the lights off for him at night. I also got to finish reading the first chapter of Winnie the Pooh to Neylan. [...]

This has been a tough past few day. Not only because the labor was long, but because of everything else that we had to go through. Neylan had his surgery on Sunday. After his surgery he was in the intensive care nursery at DHMC. The doctors and nurses have been doing a wonderful job taking [...]
