Monday

The boys are ok. Sorry for not updating the site but I was out of commission today. Sometimes I think the medication makes the symptons worse. Brooke went to spend time with the boys today. I am not sure where November went. The boys would be 32 weeks and 1 day today.

Brandon was being held by Brooke but kept having breathing problems so the nurse put him back in his isolete. As soon as she put him back he did a huge burp and his breathing went back to normal. He is still eating the same 26mls and they dont want to raise him b.c. he is spitting up a bit. He is 3lbs 1oz. And the best part is he is wearing baby clothes. They are trying to see if he can regulate his own temperature. If he does regualate his own temperature then he will be able to go into a regular crib. His braind scan was officially stable, no future growth of the hydrocephulus.

David's bleeding in his lungs stopped. His platlet count went from 82k to 74k. They just want to watch him before giving him another transfusion. They hope that now that he stopped bleeding the platlets will stop dropping. His blood work came back good, including his blood-gas. He is up 20 mls, and tolerating it. They started fortifying it today to 24 calories. He extubated himself today again, and they tried to see if he could go onto CPAP but he couldnt, so they reintubated him again. He was fine after he was reintubated. He basically coughed up the tube, he was swaddled when this latest extubation happened. They are testing David's urine for CMV, basically another virus we all carry. All his blood cultures were negative still.
