Day Four

Momma went home (and bawled all night).

Brody continued to accept the milk well. We took his temperature and changed his diaper.  And guess what? He opened his eyes and smiled at us!

Soon the nurses will be able to take out the lines to his stomach and replace them with something called a pick line.  This new line reduces the risk of infection and would allow us to hold him as long as he was stable with everything else. Brody is making progress every day. Keep it up little guy, we love you!
