Progress

My sister is getting better, slowly but surely. Tubes were taken out. Baby is still in NICU with IV, not digesting food yet. He's also jaundice, but they have the lights shining on him. He's opening his eyes, moving, even grabbing tightly onto our fingers.

Me, I'm OK, immensely happy, incredibly sleepy, and unbearably achy since my mom and I have been in the hospital with them nearly 24/7, getting maybe four hours of sleep. Just a bit closer to exhaling, now.

Thank you all so much for your comments, emails, and calls. They've meant the world to me, and my sister is greatly appreciative of your support. Much love to all of you.

Such wonderful beauty in something so very small. Glad to hear they're making progress. I do hope you and your mother can get some rest, though!
