Another day

Well Logan had a pretty good night. When Danny and I went to visit him last night, he was settled down and sleeping fairly well. He started his two new antibiotics for possible pneumonia, an asthma medication, and a diuretic to help get any fluid out of his lungs. On his blood gas this morning, his carbon dioxide level was down from 58 to 55, so a little better. They turned down one of the pressures on his machine after that.

He is tolerating his feedings at 7ccs spread over a 2 hour period, which is fantastic! The nurse gave him another enema around 5 a.m. and he had a large bowel movement around 8 a.m., so maybe that will make him feel better.

I think that is all for now. Thank you for all of the positive comments and prayers. I know they are working.

Thank you Jill for keeping us
up dated on little baby Logan.
You do a great job. Jill i know
you have your ups and downs, but
God helps us so much through our
difficult times.

Great Grandma can't wait to rock
baby Logan in her rocking chair.

Grandpa don't like to take the time
to read anything on the computer but when i tell him Jill has an up
date on baby Logan he comes right
back here and reads it.

Jill we will keep you all in our
prayers. Take care. Just let us
know if you need anything.

Love,
Grandpa and Grandma

Jill- Thanks for the update. Sorry that yesterday wasn't such a great day, but I hope that today has been much better for you all. Glad that Logan's feedings are going well. I can't imagine how tiny his belly must be. We will pray extra hard that the meds work on Logan's lung issues. Stay strong and remember you have lots of love and support sent your way!!
