Thank you all and THANK YOU LORD JESUS...

We are at The Children's Hospital in Denver, in the neonatal intensive care unit. What an amazing place and amazing people. The March of Dimes charities go to this place and ones like it. The nic-u has 60 beds...for critical babies and these people give their heart and soul to each one.

Baby flew by himself and we drove the two hour drive (which took three because of rush-hour Friday 4th of July weekend) with two hours of sleep in the last 48 or so hours. Miche drove in front of us all the way up here and stayed and prayed and supported. Then she took my younger daughter home...and will be back if we need her in anyway. (And has done MUCH much more than what I have listed) Lord thank you and please bless her.

Baby's mama was not really supposed to get released...temp and elevated white cells. But they knew she needed to be with baby. So got to watch her temp and if it goes to 100.5 she has to go to a different hospital. Last check it was 101.1. She had been in labor since 11:30 am on Wed. He was born at 1:08 am Friday. In between that she maybe got three or four hours sleep before she got to the hospital at 8:30 am on Thursday...with none since delivery. She is finally sleeping.  I really am very proud of how she has stepped right in too being "mom".  She is a pretty amazing young woman.  (21)  She already understands that mom thing of "Lord please let me have the pain".

Baby Traceyn. Praise the Lord is doing as well as he can be right now. No determination on what's going on. His heart cycle is missing a part of the rhythm it should have...BP low...pulmonary hypertension...fluid in lungs...and (best part!) started 2 hours after birth at 90% oxygen...and now is weaned down to 40%. He is intubated so the poor little guy can't cry...


God is in control and he is making improvements. So praise the Lord.

Thank you all...I absolutely believe the prayers have done more than we can possibly imagine.
