Andrew’s Progress
Sept. 13: Andrew was having some trouble breathing and has some fluid on his lungs. So, they sent him to Childrens Hospital in DC today at 4pm. He was actually doing a lot better when he left. I am still at Calvert Hospital and I am doing OK, physically. Not sure as of now when either of us are going home. Will update you when I know more. Please keep us in your thoughts and prayers.
Sept. 15: Well, here is the update. As of now, andrew has been off oxygen for 24 hrs. And has been eating 1 oz. every 3 hrs. So things are looking great. If his blood test is negative then he should be released on saturday after 1pm. Thank you for all your prayers. I will be staying in the hospital until sunday late afternoon, early evening. Andrew will be brought to me from Childrens and stay with me in the hospital until I leave. I can't wait!!! I am attaching a picture, so don't forget to open it. More pictures will follow after I get home. And thanks again for praying for us.
Sept. 19: Hello All, Sorry I didn’t update sooner. Andrew and I both went home on Saturday, 9-15. Andrew is doing well. He is eating good. He now weighs 6lbs. 1oz. he is sooo tiny...
