Update




Peyton now weighs 5lbs 3.3 oz.

He is doing well with the new medication the gave him and he seems to be able to eat a little more now that his stomach is digesting things a little faster.

The doctors are a little concerned with his Calcium and Phosphorus levels still being low. The levels are coming up just not to the amount they are wanting them to be. The doctor is going to have a meeting with the nutritionist today to discuss other options in regards to supplementation for the Calcium and Phosphorus.

He is also going to have to have another sleep study done in the next couple of days and may have to have another blood transfusion if he does not start producing red blood cells at a faster rate. the doctor said he is producing the red blood cells but they are taking more blood out to test him than his little body can produce.

Please continue to pray for Peyton and ask God to watch over him as he continues to grow.
