Hooray for Saturday!!! Joe started off the morning feeding getting Isaac to drink 22cc's out of his bottle. For his noon feeding, he drank 32cc's from his bottle. For my afternoon feeding...I only got him to drink 17cc's before he fell asleep and the same amount for his dinner feeding. (17 must have been my number today!). Lab results came in today confirming DiGeorge Syndrome...although, his t-cell count is within normal range and his immune system is the part of DiGeorge that we're most concerned about. His calcium levels are also still within normal range and he is no longer on calcium supplements. The meds is on right now is lasix. The neonatologists said that we could keep working with Isaac on his bottle feeding for another month before we would talk about putting in a G-tube (the feeding tube in his belly)...but, the cardiologists want to go ahead and put the g-tube in him so that he can get as strong as possible before his heart surgery. Tristen, Chris, and Eli went to Circus Circus today...needless to say, they are all wiped out tonight!!! Sweet dreams to us all!
