The Dance is now a Jig

Things are moving at a slightly faster pace I now like to call the pee pee jig. :) Since we last posted Colton has been on and off of the lasix twice and on and off the oscillating ventilator twice. He pees a lot and then stops. The doctors chase his kidneys and then he over-pees. They pull back on the meds and he stops peeing. I actually had a doctor tell me today that they have never ever seen a baby so dependent on lasix. Oh my little boy is giving everyone a challenge already! As of the time of this post he is peeing well but still on the oscillating ventilator. He is off the lasix (for now).

On a more positive note, he is doing well on his feeds and is up to 1/2 oz. every 3 hours. And he weighs 2 lbs. 14.5 oz. Almost 3 lbs!

Colton,
Good to know that you like to dance now instead of a jig how about a nice slow steady waltz.
Keep up the good work eating.
Eric and I have joined the calvary so we will see your mommy and dadddy soon.
Love to all.
