Day 4 12/12/09

9:00 a.m.

They are taking the light away. His bilirubin numbers have already gotten better. This kid is good.

3:00 p.m.

Hanks oxygen saturation numbers have dropped to 65-70. They did an echo and found some fluid around his heart. They are going to give him a dieuretic called lasix. They want him to pee out any exta fluid.

5:30 p.m.

Hank has peed quite a bit and his oxygen sats have gone back up.

Dinner

Gaby and Jonathan brought King Ranch Chicken and salad, Blake and Melanie brought tea, plates, and silver ware. James and Alyssa brought chips and dip. We had a great dinner. We continue to be amazed by our friends and family.

We were able to stay at the RMH again, and Sam feed Hank every 3 hours. She is working hard and is a great mommy already.
