Tanning bed - October 15, 2013

Last night there was concern over Owen's digestive system.  The milk was stopped until an x ray was given.  Everything looked fine and they started him back with the milk but at half the rate.  Today they did an ultrasound of his kidneys, liver, and digestive tract to see if anything is suspicious.  We haven't received those results yet.

His lungs still look hazier today.  This could be because of the weight he's gained over the last couple of days and the way the extra ounces affect his breathing and ventilator.

They are continually adjusting fluid levels in Owen.  It is a balancing act to keep all his various fluid levels in line.

The liver seems to be making progress.

He is still having some minor temperature fluctuations.  They put him on two antibiotics just to be safe. They will reassess this once the cultures show results.

Praying for:

• Liver to function properly
• Digestive tract to function properly
• Lungs to develop
• Infections to stay away
• Bones to grow stronger
