Look At Me Now

The feeding tube is out! Today was the first time Janet was able to see Caleb's face without any tubes. He is so cute! We are planning on posting pictures of him soon so you can all see how well he looks. The doctor today told us that they want to send us home as soon as possible. The main problem holding us back now is weight gain and him consistently feeding at least 2ozs every 3 hours around the clock. He has lost a bit over a pound after his cath and surgery and is not gaining it back. They stopped giving him one of the diuretics today which may help weight gain a bit. They also did the EEG (brain test) today, but we have not received the results yet. His lung still has a bit of fluid, but they are not flooded or getting worse.
