Stronger bones - November 25, 2013

Owen stayed the same weight.  They are going up 1ml per feeding.

His eye exam was done today.  His vessels weren't growing too much, so we don't really know anything yet.  The doctor said next week we will probably be able to tell if he will be on the path to laser surgery.

He was taken off of the medicine to help his liver since it seems to be function better.

His dose of the long term diuretic is being reduced.  Hopefully his kidneys will know what to do and he won't have to be on the diuretic too much longer.

He is done with the antibiotics for the time being.

Owen is still on the heart medicine.  We haven't seen any bad side effects yet.

His lungs weren't expanding like the doctor hoped, so they decided to leave the oxygen levels alone.  



Praying for:                                                              Praise:

• Bones to grow stronger                             Bones are looking like they are getting stronger
• Lungs to function better
• Infection to stay away                                Owen is off antibiotics now
• Heart problems to heal
• No long term effects from the steroids
• Be willing and able to take a bottle
• Eyes to grow properly
