Well if you did not know we were back in the hospital. We are now home and everything is fine. However Tuesday morning scared the bajebies out me and Lee. Keian Aspirated at about 3 am. I heard him and immediately got up and started suctioning him. He usually recovers on his own and everything is usually fine. This time was different. I had to give him mouth to mouth breaths because he was not breathing. We called an abulance but luckily before they got there he was doing better and breathing on his own. I'm so glad I took CPR training for infants even though it was like 18 years ago. I took it as a teenager when I was babysitting regularly. My school offered a babysitting class that included infant and child CPR. I never thought I would ever have to use it let alone on my own child. I know the Lord was with me giving me the hints on what to do becasue I can't believe I was so calm through it all. I think I was more scared when Keain was having seizures from low blood sugar. The doctors are agreeing with me that we need to get his GTube done right away. Keian's pediatrician is trying to get it pushed through as soon as possible. He does so much better without the tube in his nose as far as aspiration goes but it will be at least 6 months more before he can totally sustain himself with solid foods. He is now 11 lbs 1 oz wich is wonderful, but he needs to be 13 pounds before they really want to push the solid foods. If he continues the way he has with growth over the last three months it is going to be 6 months before he gets there. That is just too long to have that tube down his nose. Plus we want to do it before cold and flu season or else we will definately be stuck at home all the time. I want to tell Granny and Mom thanks for all the help with Jessica. It has been nice having my mother here to help out. I wish you were in town more often. I can't wait for my sister Lisa and her husband to get here. We all have missed them and are looking forward to the big get together next week. Well all for now, I'm going to spend some much needed time with Jessica.
