Day 117
Weight: 5 lbs 2 oz
Samuel has been on and off with his bottles. One day he wants it and another day he fights about it. It seems like he does better while I'm there with him - but I have to sleep sometime! Dr. Arrington added the extra calories back to Samuel's milk today since he stopped gaining weight. They also increased the Simply Thick once again.
Tomorrow Samuel will have an eye exam around noon. It should be one of the last ones that he has to have. We are praying that his eyes show normal development (as always.)
The surgery on Samuel's inguinal hernia is coming quickly. I don't have an official time-frame yet though. Apparently they will put in an iv on Wednesday night - and stop feeds around midnight. I'm guessing that the actual surgery will be sometime Thursday morning.
More to come later.....
Prayers that all goes well. You are so close to having him home.
