Evening update


Ty's doctor called this evening with his latest blood test results. In 12 hours his bilirubin dropped from 21 to 19 which indicates that we are on the right track with his treatment. He will continue being under the photo therapy lights and fed formula until his number is below 14. Our best case scenario is bringing home with home health care on Sunday. We pray that day arrives quickly as this was one really hard and emotional day. The blessing is that he will be okay in the long run. The tough part is that he learned last night that crying made them get his mommy and I am not able to be there for him.

I took this photo of Greg holding Ty for the second time yesterday when he took the opportunity to burp him. He studied Greg's OSU emblem on his shirt with intensity. Greg thinks he knows a good thing when he sees it already....
