Little Fighter




Noah's doctor is out of town for two weeks so he has a fill in doctor. This doctor calls me yesterday to tell me they're going to start him on steroids to help his lungs get better because his oxygen wasn't going so well. It has gotten better since then. The steroids will stop tomorrow. He also told me that the plates in his head had moved so he wanted to do another ultra sound because there might be fluid in his brain. The results of the ultra sound were the same as they were last Thursday. So, no fluid! He opened his eyes really wide last night and a little tonight. They also did an x-ray of his lungs. Once side is clear and the other is not. They're giving him a massage every 6 hours for 48 hours to break the stuff up. He is looking good still, kidneys are working fine. So, we're just pluggin' along...

When you grow up Noah Grandma is going to tell you the story of how you captured so many hearts, of how people from all over say prayers for you all day long. How we all cherish each and every picture that we see of you and every little bit of news we hear and how much of a little fighter you are and that as young and small as you are you are already developing a personality all your own. How Grandpa Hall is planning on taking your fishing and how Uncle Joe is making plans to take you rock hunting and teach you all about bugs. Your are our shinning star little Noah. Love Grandma Ann

Guess I'll have to make sure Noah doesn't start collecting the chimney.

Keep fighting sweetheart!
Corey also had steroids and without them he wouldn't be here! We had to have them for a long time though.
Great news about the brain scan!
