Well I am going to blog more often about the fact that Brandt isn't sleeping well...perhaps some of you thought specifically to pray about that--for him and for me. But 3 of the last four nights he has slept at least six hours, and up to eight hours one night. He also seems to be in less pain and hasn't required pain medicine for the first time since we've been home.
We were supposed to have an echo and get his blood levels checked again today, but we have SNOW here and almost everything is cancelled. This appt is rescheduled for Friday, so I continue to reserve judgment on his status until then, but we are REALLY encouraged.
Also here is an encouraging story about the oldest survivor of HLHS...I've mentioned before that we're so thankful for all the advances in treating this condition, and at the time she had her surgery, only one in 10 babies lived!
