#1. We know a lot of people are praying for Isaac and for us. It’s down to the last issue. As previously stated, he’s had some heart rate drops that are keeping him from passing his car seat test. Tonight was no different. I talked to the nurse about 15 minutes ago and he made […]

Read MoreAs we drove in this morning to visit Isaac in the NICU, Michigan Street (SR 31 through South Bend) was littered with protesters over President Obama’s stance on stem cell research and abortion as well as his receiving an honorary degree from a Catholic institution. Let me pause and say that I believe in the […]
Read More(CLICK FOR TODAY’S PHOTO) Today started like the other 10 days we’ve been here. We got up, called the NICU for a report, and drove in to see him. Our phone report sent our emotions through the roof. All tubes were taken out this morning. Yesterday, they took him off any O2 support, and this […]
Read More(LINK TO TODAY’S PHOTO) Time in the NICU is like time nowhere else. It just disappears. I’m not sure if it’s because we’re sitting here staring at our son or if it’s because it’s so different than the rest of life. It’ll feel like we’ve been there for 15 minutes and it’s been 2 hours. […]
Read MoreTonight was a little different for us than the last week has been. Tonight we ate a home cooked meal that didn’t consist of peanut butter and jelly (Peter Pan & Raspberry Smuckers Jam on wheat… the best). Ma-Cindy, Isaac’s new MI grandmother, had made some chicken noodle soup from scratch last night and offered […]
Read MoreThe NICU isn’t a place you usually hear much laughter. With a name like Isaac (which means “he will laugh”) I would expect nothing less from this little one. And the proof: He just farted on his mom. I heard it on the other side of the room. She’s now turning up her nose from […]
Read MoreIsaac is a week old today… is that a “birthday” to celebrate? Either way, we are celebrating him like it’s our job! Last night was a good night. – His little lungs are still progressing. The nurse is hoping to ween him down a little slowly today. – He’s taking his feedings by bottle! It […]
Read MoreI just received an email from a friend and fellow Christ-follower and music snob. This is what it said: Subject: Have you seen this? [youtube=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C-lY8VQpSTY&hl=en&fs=1] Thanks, Tim. It’s what I needed today. -PJT//
Read MoreTurns out I’m getting the short end of the stick… First vomit … right here. Thank you, SO much. He really is doing better. Nurse Stephanie explained to us that after some labs and an x-ray this morning they think the heart rate drop was from reflux. They’re continuing to increase his feedings. He’s now […]
