We are all ready!!!

We are looking forward to the day when Jack comes home!




Although the doctors have not told us when he will be coming home, the consensus is that he is coming home soon...Here are some pictures of his room! Thank you Mr. Cassidy for George the Giraffe!

Video Highlight of Jack in Action

Umm...so I just realized I sound really bossy here! Poor Jack and Daddy!

Wednesday Night




OK. Apparently there is no such thing as a good "layman's term" synopsis for what Jack has... Suffice it to say that he is getting better and that all are optimistic that he will be home soon. We got to change his diaper today and hold him a bit. He was very spoiled with all his guests and VIP visitors. We are thanking God for his faithfulness in healing Jack and surrounding him with some of the very best doctors. The outpouring of support has been incredible to experience! We've included some pictures of him from today. He is definitely a confirmed blond!

What's going on?

It seems like the doctors have finally figured out what is going on with Jack. It's not the pulmonary hypertension as they initially thought, which makes sense because he just wasn't fitting the symptoms for that. The doctors think he's got a temporary heart condition and today we're going to try to get a good "layman's explanation" from them to pass on to all of you. Essentially, his heart is a little bigger than it's supposed to be in areas, but this should resolve itself to normal in 7-10 days. The outlook is good, we just have to be patient as he improves! We truly appreciate the calls and emails, so keep them coming. Even if we don't get back to you, we will soon!

Tuesday's Update

Don't get scared!!!!


I'm doing better! My O2 saturation level is holding at around 90-95% and I am on 63% pure O2. This is an improvement from even yesterday when I was on 100% pure O2. I'm still cute as ever and the doctors think I will be fine in a week or ten days. Thank you all for your prayers for me!

Here I am the night I was born!
