good vitals, some discomfort on night #1

On.
Off.

Athan has been touch and go as far as sleep for the last 4 hours or so. We’re doing everything we can think of to help him rest. Even with the highest dosages of sedation the Dr. is comfortable with, the little guy still occasionally tries to unfetter himself. Who can blame him, right? The good news is that his vital signs and labs are in great shape!

Hopefully he'll sleep well tonight and be on track to start eating sometime in the morning. Amberly went back to Wilmore with the grandmas to spend some time with Morgan (who it sounds like had a great time with the Smiths and Jaggers today! Thank you.) and get some rest. All of you, with your prayers and hospitality, make it possible for us to "be a family" even when we're spread out in central Kentucky for a few days. "Thank you" hardly seems sufficient.

My thoughts are with you all. Athan is such a fighter and you strength as a family never fails to amaze me :-)

Poor little guy! I'm glad they were able to change meds and help the discomfort. Being held by mom and dad today will help!!

We continue to pray!
