Weight: 3 pounds, 14 ounces
Simon had a rough patch last week. He was down to level 5 on cpap, but a huge weight gain led to concerns about his chest. A chest x-ray revealed that he was retaining fluids and his lungs we low-volume. After a few days with high levels of pressure to boost his lung volume, and with lasik to get rid of the fluid, he is back on track. We are on a level 6 cpap and hope to return to level 5 soon. His weight gain is back to normal, too. Lastly, he had another eye exam and is right where he should be.
It stunk to take a step backwards, but it seems like we're moving forward again now. We'll keep you posted.
In other news, Simon somehow found the time and skills to make us the most beautiful Valentine's Day card. We're still not entirely sure how, but we love it!
