We apologize...

We JUST got notice that they are going to start limiting all visitors except parents to the NICU. We are crushed because we know how much some of you want to see him, especially grandparents. This is effective Monday. We're frustrated at the lack of warning, and the fact that it's so strict. I'm not sure if it's more strict than normal, but they're concerned about the seasonal flu and the H1N1 virus.

The GOOD news is that Micah's FEES test (the one to see where his saliva is going) has been moved up to this Monday the 21st. It was supposed to be the 28th. This may not provide answers, but it will help narrow down the potential problem he's having with his heart rate and oxygenation. We pray they find that nothing is going into his lungs that shouldn't be.

Take care!

  3. The last thing those babies need is anykind of illness brought in by outsiders, so it really is a smart move. Not fun for you, but a smart move. Guess you'll just have to post lots of pictures :) Hope they get Micah figured out real soon.
