This morning when I went to visit I was a little surprised when I looked over and I was one kid short! Andrew wasn't in his incubator he was getting a CT scan. They forgot to tell me that they had ordered it and I was a little surprised. We had met with the Dr. yesterday afternoon after Andrew had a spell of not breathing and I was concerned that he just didn't look good. The doctor said he felt it was all due to his stomach infection and not the head situation. They will do an Upper GI on him in 10 days once the infection has been fully treated.
Today his stomach looked much better and they gave him another blood transfusion because he was anemic again. The doctors said the blood transfusion should also make him feel better.
The results of the CT scan showed that the blood has been absorbed! That is a huge blessing and we praise God for the news. The ventricles are still enlarged and there is still fluid on the brain, but there didn't appear to be any damage to the brain tissue-we are so happy about that! Now, we are praying that the spinal fluid will be able to drain on its own and that he won't have prolonged pressure on the brain. We know our God is the great physician and we are trusting him to do what is best! We appreciate everyone's prayers and support!

We are sooooo excited. The kids were all happy and clapping. They have been bringing them up for prayer at school, so we get asked quite often if there is any news. Bryan found out and ran over here to tell Michael. What a relief. Thank the Lord. I am sure it has been quite a burden lifted off your heart. Love to you all, Brenda
WOW!!! The Lord is good!!! We are so excited to hear this good news. Now we will pray for the fluid to be taken away. How special to be able to have more contact with your babies. I bet bath time was great! Take care. Love, Beth and family
