Well, today I get to stay with Micah for the night. As Patricia has been here day & night since his admission. She is over due for a full night's sleep. Micah seems to be doing well, although he put out 362mL for a 12 hour period. His GI doctor restarted the neocate tube feedings via his nasal jejunum tube at a rate of 2mL/hour. He is still receiving TPN & IV electrolyte replacements. Hopefully, he will tolerate his tube feedings and not start re-dumping. He loves to be held all the time and is fussy when you don't hold him. But that's ok because mommy and daddy don't mind. Family & friends have been very supportive. Without them this would be even harder.

Hey. We just heard about Micah from Grethen and Joey. Tommy and I are praying for him and all of your family. We have put Micah on the prayer list at church. I hope everything will go well for him in the coming weeks and months. If there is anything at all that Tommy or me can do, then just let us know. We are so sorry to hear this.
