Little Fighter...

Our little Max is doing a little better today. They turned down his blood pressure medications and have lowered his oxygen parameters (meaning that he is getting better and doesn't need so much help with the oxygen) also he had another echo cardiogram (ultrasound of his heart) this morning, and although we don't have the official report back yet the tech told the nursing staff that it looks like his pulmonary hypertension looked better. So if that's true then they will be able to start weaning him off of the ventilator. Once he is off of the ventilator he will be able to actually start eating!! YAY! He only weighs 5 lbs 4 oz right now so I am hoping that they will start fattening him up soon! We sure do love this little boy. Such a sweet baby!

We are so grateful for your continued prayers for our little guy! We sure can feel the influence from our family and our friends and the love that is being outpoured to our family at this difficult time!
