-Daddy celebrated Father's Day a month late - he was able to hold Daniel for the first time yesterday. Daddy and Daniel enjoyed their "bonding time". -Daniel is continuing to gain weight, his current weight is 2 pounds, 10 ounces. The goal is for Daniel to gain an ounce a day. (Nanny, Granny2 and Mommy have all said that they would donate some fat if it would help.)
-Daniel's feeds have been increased, he is now getting 16 ccs of milk every 3 hours. As of Friday he is no longer getting nutrients and lipids through the IV, he is getting all his nutrients and fats through milk. He will stay off the IV as long as his blood sugar stays under control.
-We are so happy that Daniel's growth and health is headed in the right direction.

ReplyDeleteWonderful to see Daniel doing so well! Ya'll keep your chins up, okay? Daniel is not the only family member who is being prayed for...
Also, are there any pictures of Jenny holding Daniel? All I see are Daniel by himself, or with his daddy, but I haven't seen any with Mommy. Just curious. :}
