Today Dinky got to see his "ma" and "pa" again. They hadn't seen him since he was about 2 pounds so he was proud to show off his extra poundage. He especially looks the part of the angelic grandchild while he snuggles up on his belly. He is very cute.

He continued to do well today. They had been weaning his fentanyl (the sedative) and he didn't do as well with the last reduction (he seemed very agitated) so they upped it again. He was resting comfortably shortly after that. They also increased his feeds and he is now at 15.5 mL an hour!! His "episodes" seemed to be limited to activity so he really seemed to be respirating well.

Other than that there is not a lot of news to report. And while we're anxious for him to make progress we'll also settled for a few "no news is good news" days.
