Wednesday August 11, 2010 - Enjoying some Peace and Quiet

Today was a rather quiet and calm day. The nurses have been diligent about keeping Graeme positioned on his side snuggled up with little blanket rolls to simulate the comfort of being in the womb. They have stopped the muscle relaxant and Graeme remains calm and comfortable. Mommy had a wonderful visit and was able to talk to him quietly and place her hand on his head and chest without causing aggitation. Graeme opened his eyes several times briefly as Mommy spoke to him and he then drifted back to sleep.

We were given the good news that they were able to take Graeme off antibiotics today. He is mildly jaundiced, however, they do not feel they will need to treat this in the short term.

We pray that the next few days will remain quiet and that Graeme will be able to continue to sleep well and rest comfortably in order to allow his body to heal.

We want to truly thank so many of you for your calls, emails, notes of encouragment, and offers of generous support. We love you all and can't wait for you to meet our little Graeme!
