Wednesday, 9/7

One thing I have failed to mention: Someone, and I won't mention names, helped me smuggle Nye (my 6 year old nephew) into the NICU so he could finally see this mysterious cousin he keeps hearing about. It was very sweet. Nye did great. I had asked him to whisper and I could barely hear him he was talking so quietly. He and Dinky shared a sweet look. It will be nice when Nye can really see him and touch him.

Things continue to go well although Dinky seems to have a little infection from one of his IV's (or BX's as Nye called it). They have started him on antibiotics so hopefully it will clear up soon. Today most of his roommates were all crying at one time, and they're all so tiny it sounded like a roomfull of cats mewing. Well, the lion roared. Dinky joined in with a cry that put all of the other babies to shame. He was very pleased to let them all know he's finally the loudmouth of the room. That's our boy!
