Week 10

October has arrived!  This has been a big week for the Perry's!  We filmed a segment for Chronicle to air sometime in the next 2 weeks about our experience here at CHaD.  We had a good time sharing our story with Tiffany Eddy and we can't wait to see what she uses, BJ also provided her with photos and both of our video's on a zip drive! 

The two month video is a hit here at the ICN with all the staff - Elliot's such a rock star....good thing dad is already working on the next one!

We also started feeding Elliot with a bottle, he had his first one with me on Wednesday, BJ had a meeting in Concord so Elliot and I tried the bottle, my sister came by to visit and to cheer Elliot on.  I was super nervous I kept thinking I was giving him too much and he was going to choke, but he took it nice and slow and we were able to get a few cc's down - he got pretty tired and also had an eye exam later that day so we didn't push him!  He's had a few more bottles with the nurses later this week and he seems to be enjoying them!

He graduated to high flow - another type of oxygen and it's one step closer to getting him home, he's also weighing in at about 3lb 13 oz - a real fatty!

All in all a very great week for the 3 of us and we couldn't be happier!  Thanks again for all the well wishes - everyones prayers seem to be working!
