Dear Samuel,
Not much change today. I wish I could say the same for your Mom, Isaac and Schatze.

Mom woke up feeling even worse today (sore throat and congested). We cleared it with your doctors to have her take some Amoxicillin to try to help her get rid of this nasty cold. She asked me earlier today if she "looked as bad as she felt"......I didn't answer. Your brother Isaac is still fighting something too. He has more of a cough and runny nose. Schatze is just Schatze. She's sitting across the room from me and I can hear her stomach making all kinds of noises (The temp is going to drop this weekend). For now, I'm healthy as a horse (knock on wood).
You had a really good night last night. Your nurse said that from 11:00 p.m. until 5:00 a.m. she was in your room twice because of de-sats. Today, however, you were a little naughty (as your nurses like to call it). Only 1 ABD but a lot of de-sats. Good news is that you recover on your own when you do de-sat.
Tonight, when I came down to see you, your O2 was at 32%. 32%!!!! That's the lowest you have been in weeks! I'm pretty impressed, because I would think that with the RSV that you would require more O2. Guess you're just a little champ.
Your weight was down 20 grams last night to 790 (1 pound 11.5 ounces). This is going to be our next milestone; getting your weight up. I threatened you with Hans and Frans before....don't think I won't do it......
See you tomorrow buddy!
Love,
Mom and Dad
