Live your life each day as you would climb a mountain.
An occasional glance toward the summit keeps the goal in mind,
but many beautiful scenes are to be observed from each new vantage point.

3rd Time's a Charm and Playing Catch Up

Unfortunately, the feeding tube must not have stayed in Mason's small intestine after the 2nd ER visit, because right after getting his mid day meds yesterday, Mason threw up and his tube came out once again. So Bill took him in to the doctor's office (thank Heaven for this time being during business hours!), re-placed the tube, and confirmed that it was in the intestine with yet another xray. Poor little guy is going to glow pretty soon! So far, today, the tube has stayed in, no puking, and we've had a very talkative, happy baby. Let's hope this one is going to hold!

Because of yesterday's adventure with the feeding tube, we had to reschedule our PT visit for today. We had a very good visit with our wonderful PT. Mason has made up some time with his milestones that require strength and endurance and continues to be on track with his other milestones. We also got some good information on ways to help him catch up and keep him moving forward. We are so excited that he's keeping up as well as he is given all he's been through. It is nice to have some real positives!
