Minor Setbacks

Peyton now weighs 5lbs 0.2oz.

His eye exam yesterday went well and the doctor said that his retina is nearly fully developed and he has a good chance of having 20/20 vision. His sleep study showed inconclusive results. They say he does not need full time O2 but it is not going to hurt him to have it. The study also showed that his acid reflux is worse than originally thought, so they are going to try some different medications and formula to try and correct the problem. He also had his immunizations yesterday and everything seems to be ok there.

The setbacks are that he had an A&B spell yesterday morning and this morning. In order for him to come home he has to have 5 consecutive days without any episodes. The doctors and nurses all seem to think that these A&Bs are related to his reflux, they think that if they fix that he should be ok.

Thank you all for all your prayers and support. Please continue to pray that God watch over him and make him stronger with each passing day.
