Quiet Sunday

No nurse today, so Camden is spending time with his Nana and me. :) Kids and Marcus are at church, so it is really quiet around here!
Camden is doing great on his hours off the vent and his numbers remain great. The only bad thing is now that he has had a "taste" of so much time off the ventilator, he always wants off! As soon as he is up from a nap, he is ready and can't stand to sit there on a lap. ;) He will LOVE it next week when it increases to 2 hours off, because that will be practically all the time he is awake. He thanks the vent for its help, but is ready to say bye bye. ;>)

Orally, he is doing better. Still not eating or breastfeeding, but tolerating everything in his mouth which is huge. Sucks much better too, but can't suck things too deep, but is getting closer. Physically he is getting stronger everyday. Weak trunk and legs, but just needs therapy and we work with him daily. Occupational therapy is also starting to come every Thursday, so that will be so wonderful for him.

  1. Hey Dev, Happy 6 mos - Camden. I too remember the day he was born. I will never forget it. I do remember in my spirit, that I knew he would be okay. I never doubted for a minute no matter what those doctors said. This is a testament of what our God does. He hears us and answers our prayers. He puts our every tear in a bottle. Thank you Lord for every improvement that Camden makes. Pretty soon those sounds will turn into words and Camden will be saying Mommy, Daddy and thank you Jesus. I can hardly wait.

    Luv ya,

    Michelle
