This has been kind of a rought week. One of ups and downs... I got an infection this week and needed my CPAP settings to be turned up. The good thing is that the doctors were able to figure out what the infection was quickly and the antibiotics are already kicking in. My CPAP settings are back to where they were before the infection... so I am ready to move foward. I now weight 1390 grams! Still need to meet that four pound goal before they consider sending me home. That, and the whole breathing thing! As for my eyes... the injection into my eyeballs has worked! The specialist came to check them out and said that the ROP is gone. I have to continue with followups for a while, but we are very glad that I did not have to go through laser surgery. Mom and dad still visit all the time, and are holding me daily. I am looking foward to the day when I can come home!
