Big Day


1- The twins 1st Hokie Football Game

2- 1st Bath

3 - Matt took 60 ml / 2 oz with the bottle and no feeding tube!


Matt seemed to be much more alert today and took his full bottle w/o the feeding tube at 5:00 p.m. feeding. That is a major accomplishment after struggling to get 20 ml. Hopefully, that trend will keep up. The speech pathologist says that the signs of hunger come in 2 waves. 1st, alert/open eyes. 2nd, turning the head looking for food/ crying/etc. It seems like we might have hit the 1st wave.


Matt will likely be at the hospital til he hits the 2nd wave and has a good 24 hrs. That is probably putting him there through Sun. at least.

Last night, Jon, Charlie, Will and I came home while Grandma W stayed overnight at the hospital w/Matt. Charlie & Jon went to school/work while Will and I went to stay with Matt during the day. We are at home again tonight and Grandma W is back.
It has been great to get home but also know Matt is in great hands.


GO HOKIES!
